This song is about two wounded individuals learning to navigate a new romance.
lyrics
Verse 1
Sunflower seeds
Gardens and weeds
I sold my soul so you could hear me sing
Sunlight and nectar
For your little hummingbird
Saving up our silver to buy our dreams
Prechorus
I’d give my breath away
To be a petal in your daisy chain
Let me cradle your head and carry all of your shame
Chorus
Bird of prey meets bird of spring
Open wound meets broken wing
Here on earth, we long to fly
My fiery moon is slow to rise
Oh, but it’s so warm in the spotlight
Verse 2
I finally made the dive
I never felt more alive
Breathing in the fragrance of the summer air
Something changed that day
I felt it fall into place
It was the answer to every one of my prayers
Prechorus 2
I want you to know
You’re the soil that makes my garden grow
So plant the seed in my head and watch the roots take hold
