For my Favorite. Keep shining, because your heart is a garden!

lyrics

When I met you, you were happy
When I met you, you were happy
Life was an adventure
That it wasn’t hard to go on
What’s it like losing someone?
I still don’t know what that feels like
I know how to stand up twice
But what’s it like to re-learn to breath?
How do I be a good friend?
That’s what I always ask me
Maybe it’s this anxiety
Or just what my parents gave me

You are like a hummingbird
Out in the rain
You only come out in silence
So no one sees your pain

And I am a black bear
Foraging for answers
I’m not unorganized
All I want is answers

Just trying to survive
But I’ll be happy
As long as you’re happy too
Because without you:
There would be no flowers
There would be no bees
There would be no honey
And there would be no more me
There would be no laughter
There would be no trees
Then there would be no air
That you can re-learn to breathe

This world needs hummingbirds
And this world needs back bears
And this world needs you
And this world needs me

And it will get better
‘Cause it always gets better
‘Cause hummingbirds come out when the sun shines too

If you know me from anything, it's probably from S.M.I.L.E. or MettaGov, or perhaps you met me through Kling Thing. Well, I do solo music too, and it's music that I've grown to love. New music soon (we each have our own definitions of soon)!
