about

This song is loving dirt and grim and dust. It is the freedom that comes from understanding that there is no difference between growing and withering.

lyrics

counting on entropy
waiting to atrophy
grab a cup of coffee and waste away with me

mold blooms beautifully
fungus creep quietly
making a home in a home i thought was for me

tip toe back to the dirt once again
don't be fearful as the worms explore your hands
giving up is not the same as giving in
and heartbreak is just as good a place to begin

dark clouds bring silver linings but block the shooting stars
trade-offs and compromises are all we really are
it's hard it's hard it's hard it's hard

it's hard to see when your lenses are so rosy
settled in naivety is a sterile way to be

tip toe back to the dirt once again
don't be fearful as the worms explore your hands
giving up is not the same as giving in
and heartbreak is just as good a place to begin

breathing out and breathing in
breathing out and breathing in
breathing out and breathing in
breathing out and breathing in
