Lyrics

I’m still here beneath
These broken dreams that crumble and bury me alive,
Still.
I’m still here beneath
These autumn leaves that started falling sometime last spring.
Well I don’t know, they still look so green to me.

And that’s because I saw what you told me to see.
And that’s because I felt what you tasted.
And you even designed the world for me,
so it seemed, and I believed.

I’m still here beneath
This crown of wilted daisies you placed over my head.
But it never fit, and my scream’s too big,
And it’s not enough to keep me warm in winter’s chill, So still.
I’m still here beneath
six feet of decomposing autumn leaves becoming frozen.
So still.

I’m having a little bit of trouble trying to melt my way out.
I’m having a little bit of trouble trying for once to help myself out.

And that’s because I saw what you told me to see.
And that’s because I felt what you tasted.
And you even designed the world for me,
so it seemed, and I believed! I believed, I believed. I believed, I still believed!

You’re still here beneath
My aging broken fingers, ivory,
After many missed years,
You’re still black and white keys.
