Dandelion [DEMO]

Growing where I’m not wanted
Messing with the order of things
A nuisance, though we provide
For humans and wildlife alike
A sign of life in this wasteland
A sign of life in this wasteland
You’re a dandelion
Feed, thrive and survive
We are dandelions
We are weeds, feel our power
Reduced to productivity
Why is it not enough to exist?
Pull us out from our roots
We still grow, grow
We still grow, grow
We still grow, grow
You’re a dandelion
Feed, thrive and survive
We are dandelions
We are weeds, feel our power
To exist, is to resist
To exist, is to resist
To exist, is to resist
To exist, is to resist
You’re a dandelion
Feed, thrive and survive
We are dandelions
We are weeds, feel our power
A sign of life
We’re signs of life

Now [DEMO]

Somewhere in this garden of doom
There must be a way out
The grass is overgrown
I can’t see where I’m going
Looking for joy among the fallen leaves
Brittle and lifeless
But I’ll sleep here until I can breathe
Gotta find a way out
I don't wanna feel this anymore
I wanna live in the now
I don't wanna feel this anymore
I wanna live in the now
Keep moving through this garden of doom
I see the way out
Follow the supermoon it leads the way
To waters hope to wash the pain away
I don't wanna feel this anymore
I wanna live in the now
I don't wanna feel this anymore
I wanna live in the now
Break me out of my head
Break me out of my head
Break me out of my head
I wanna live
I don't wanna feel this anymore
I wanna live in the now
I don't wanna feel this anymore
I wanna live in the now
I don't wanna feel, I don't wanna feel this
I wanna live in the now

Black Walnut [DEMO]

It’s in your nature
All you know is how to kill
Like a black walnut tree
Poisons an apple orchard
We’re not all resistant
To the toxins you secrete
Some of us will prematurely die
But, hey, you say “that’s just life”
Is it just life?"That's just life"
Is it just life?"That's just life"
Darker days are coming
You’ve got everything you need
Fat cats won’t go hungry
While we struggle you’re full on greed
Helpless is how
We are meant to feel
While the world watches
You dance, dance our days away
With the devil
Dance our days away
Dance our days away
There is hope
If we cut you down
We could grow
If we burn you to the ground
Destroy your roots
Together, we will rise
Is a better life so inconceivable
That we self-sabotage?
I have to believe, we have to believe
There is hope
If we cut them down
We could grow
If we burn them to the ground
Destroy their roots
Together, we will rise

Daughter [DEMO]

Planted the seed in my mind
Did you know it would grow like knotweed?
I don’t blame you
But every day I feel like a failure
I want to be perfect
Is it for me or is it for you?
Feel it’s my duty
To keep us alive
I am the sun and water
I am the first daughter
I am the sun and water
I am the first daughter
Too stubborn to conform
I don’t want to be bound by your roots
I can’t find a knife sharp enough
To cut us apart
I should be grateful
The guilt eats me up inside
I need to know who I am
Before one of us dies
I am the sun and water
I am the first daughter
I am the sun and water
I am the first daughter
Drink up my light
I’m too tired to fight
We are the sun and water
We are the first daughters
We are the sun and water
We are the first daughters
