Hey, hey hey, you could tell me once,
yell it at me twice, as many times as you like.
But I can't change, I'm fighting with the day
because I'm not the same, get it before it's dark.
The cold is tempting now.
I'll fall hard, I'll fall somehow
because I could never be evergreen.
I can't find my way,
but I'll try to stay
as long as you'll be evergreen.
Yeah, we'll be good for a while, but it's guaranteed
oh, I can't stay green so won't you come and help me.
It could be so hard because where I plant my feet,
in this dirty ground, it's growing up inside of me.
The cold is tempting now.
I'll fall hard, I'll fall somehow
because I could never be evergreen.
I can't find my way,
but I'll try to stay
as long as you'll be evergreen.
You should have left a long time ago
but you don't and you won't.
I've thought of every mindless excuse
to hide my thoughts from you.
I dig through deeper dirt every day
but you stay anyway.
I don't deserve whatever comes from you,
but your voice it comes through.
