just leaving the lyrics over here lol Rises the Moon days seem sometimes as if they'll never end  sun digs its heels to taunt you  but after sunlit days, one thing stays the same  rises the moon  days fade into a watercolour blur  memories swim and haunt you  but look into the lake, shimmering like smoke  rises the moon  oh close your weary eyes  I promise you that soon the autumn comes  to darken fading summer skies  breathe breathe breathe  days pull you down just like a sinking ship  floating is getting harder  but tread the water child, and know that meanwhile  rises the moon  days pull you up just like a daffodil  uprooted from its garden  they'll tell you what you owe, but know even so  rises the moon  you'll be visited by sleep  I promise you that soon the autumn comes  to steal away each dream you keep  breathe breathe breathe Recently, hand in hand  the flowers understand  that we’re fine, you and i  hands are tied  i don't mind, i’ll make you be ok  but recently  everyone says they are seeing less of me  i could do better if i had energy  be like i used to be  but frequently  i picture myself walking straight into the sea  laughing as the waves come rolling to my knees  what a place to be  side by side  you keep me safe from their static getting through  please be fine  it's too late now to go leave you behind  and recently  everyone says they are seeing less of me  i could do better if i had energy  be how i used to be  but frequently  i picture myself walking straight into the sea  laughing as the waves come rolling to my knees  what a place to be  and it's a lovely day for swimming  pretend i didn’t see the red flags that said don't go  cause if a storm out there’s beginning  i’ll find it for myself and not cause someone told me so  dududududu  and recently  everyone says they are seeing less of me  i could do better if i had energy  be like i used to be  but frequently  i picture myself walking straight into the sea  laughing as the waves come rolling to my knees  what a place to be Papercut perhaps you've not known before  to need someone and not be needed anymore  I guess nobody's to blame  my tongue's still papercut speaking your name  perhaps you don't understand  when I want you to care but now my worlds in your hands  what am I supposed to do  pretend im happy for you?  waited all day to cry  now im here my eyes are dry  couldn't help you in the end  don't know what I was looking to mend  perhaps you've not sung a song  of seeing yourself to every way come up wrong  the world cant hurt me no more  when im the very best at making myself sore  dududududududu Mother's Tongue dudwayadududud etc  the street beneath my feet is paved with rows of gold  or so I'm told  the sky before my eyes is never colour grey  or so they say  I guess I've known the truth since I was pretty young  that I never knew my mother's mother tongue  I'll fake all of my words til they point out to me  the crowds of purple orchid flowers  I can't see  I'll play along with borrowed chords until they shine  they're still not mine  I'll breathe all of these postcards in until they land  still second-hand  she gave me half my bones and made me one my lungs  but the same cold air is filling both of them  meanwhile a crocodile points out whats left behind  the field of yellow daffodils you tried  but couldn't find  bahbahbahbahbahbhabfhbhabhbahbahba  I've known since I was pretty young I never knew my mother's mother tongue x3  I'm putting on a smile made out of plasticine  and looking clean Try Again Tomorrow faces skating skyward  places I could be  cardboard houses swaying  out of sunlit seas  this barbed wire beast is thirsty for its fill  holds me underwater til im still  I could always try again tomorrow  I might always try again tomorrow  cement pours in my ribcage  hardening to stone  too late now it's passed you  walk the railway tracks until you're home  tired as the pavements underfoot  water never stays where it is put  I could always try again tomorrow  I might always try again tomorrow  try again tomorrow  (tired as pavements underfoot, weary as the petals put between pages warm with trust, turning slowly into dust) All of the lyrics were taken from Liana's bandcamp
