Envy Green

Envy green, growing ivy vines that hold me
Up they go, past my collar bones and freckles on my nose
Higher, higher 'til the words I tell myself are covered 
Envy green

The trees with their branches reach for something higher
The tips of my fingers always think there's something better, something more, something worth longing for

The stars mark the sky and separate the seasons
The day brings a greater light to set apart the mornings from the night, back and forth they fight

Caught up in the wonder of one day being better
When my deepest darkest blue and the gold that paints your sky collide

Chorus

The secret inside of me is sick of silence 
It's calling from the hollow for a greater sense of purpose
There is more
More we're intended

Caught up in the wonder of one day being better
When my deepest darkest blue and the gold that paints your sky collide

Chorus

What if we could take a taste of the maybe,
beyond what's been known and been named?
Bittersweet, we're blooming forth from the envy
There's freedom in the wisdom,
but from the bite Eve lost her Eden

Caught up in the wonder, we all wear this scarlet letter
It is written in  our fate, and the fault is when our stars collide
The garden will grow wild

Chorus

The trees with their branches reach for something higher
The tips of my fingers always think there's something better
