Slow down, child
Runnin' wild
Oh, can't you see I'm not feelin right?
And I'm scared to lose my sight

Feels like we've got the whole world in our hands
But we're just two kids
Not much of a chance
But it's not like we gave a damn

Cause' I'm still
I'm trying to pick up the pieces
Figuring out where this road's gonna lead us, hmm
And I've been beating round the same bend and
Hopin' that this cycle's gonna end

Planting a wildflower in the desert
And waiting on the Sun to supply the rain
Like squeezing water from stone
Taking a heart out of its home
Tryna give a love that wasn't meant for me

You can't say that we didn't try
I've cried all night
Wondering if I could've done somethin right
But I guess it was time
And we believed we could fight
Keep pushing for daylight
But time don't change how you feel at night

Planting a wildflower in the desert
And waiting on the Sun to supply the rain
Like squeezing water from stone
Taking a heart out of its home
Tryna give a love that wasn't meant for me

So I'll take care of the hard part
And you can blame me if you want
Say to give it one more shot
But baby I've given all that I've got
And I'm so tired of
Pushing myself to be somethin I'm not
Waiting one more day
Thinking it's gonna change
Oh, change

Planting a wildflower in the desert
No use waiting on this Sun to never supply the rain
Squeezing water from stone
Taking a heart out of its home
Tryna give a love that wasn't meant for me
