Staring at the Sun

I make dandelions bloom wherever I am near you
In the grass, they will cling to the earth, where everything is still
Sunflowers face where the sunshine goes
Flowers never care if they're
Staring at the sun

You make midnights afternoons, whenever I can hear you
And my days reset, I forget how to close a conversation
My leaves overstretching, these weeds admiring from below
Please stay unaware
Staring at the sun

I lose to you
I lose to you
Hands up I surrender
Nothing could be better
Than a mark on me
When you leave me for dead
I lose to you

I make flowers wilt so soon, and I'll admit I fear you
Though I hide in the stalks, if you sought me out, you would uproot me
And sunflowers face where the sunshine goes
But I nestle where the dandelions grow
Though flowers never care
Please stay unaware
There's nothing if you're not there
Staring at the sun
