Throw Your Roses
Embracing Growth: Defying Silence, Nurturing Voices
Lyrics
I can see your eyes looking up at me
I perceive your gaze directed towards me
To see if anyone is noticing
To check if anyone is observing
No one has been there to listen
No one has been present to lend an ear
All the more reason to sing
Even more reason to express through song
I promise this won't last forever
I assure you this difficult period is temporary
I don't want to let you make that choice
I am reluctant to allow you to make that decision
You don't need to abuse your arms but use your voice
You don't have to harm yourself physically, instead, use your voice
I know right now you think that no one is listening
Currently, you believe no one is attentive
If we fall together, we'll live forever and never grow alone
If we face challenges together, we'll endure eternally and not face solitude in growth
When I look out, I see a field of youth
Observing the younger generation, I witness uncertainty
And it is filled with doubt
It is brimming with doubt
A field of flowers pulling their petals off way too soon
A field of prematurely distressed flowers removing petals
One by one. Dropping like flies no one is speaking up
Individually falling without anyone protesting
I know right now you think that no one is listening
Similar to earlier, you believe no one is attentive
If we fall together, we'll live forever and never grow alone
If we face challenges together, we'll endure eternally and not face solitude in growth
You can grow out from decay
You can emerge positively from deterioration
But what you do with your today
However, your actions today influence everything, so keep progressing
Can resonate to everything, keep growing
[Empty line]
We've been pulled from the earth
We've been extracted from the ground
We know but we can still grow though
Despite that, we can still develop and thrive
We've both started to die and slow
Both of us have initiated a decline and slowing down
Why pick ourselves early?
Why hasten our own deterioration?
We're dying here anyways
We are perishing here anyway
Remember I can show you light
Remember, I can guide you towards illumination
But you will have to learn
But you must learn how to grow independently
How to grow on your own
What is a rose without thorns?
What is a rose with no thorn?
[Empty line]
I know right now you think that no one is listening
Similar to earlier, you believe no one is attentive
If we fall together, we'll live forever and never grow alone
If we face challenges together, we'll endure eternally and not face solitude in growth
You can grow out from decay
You can emerge positively from deterioration
But what you do with your today
However, your actions today influence everything, so keep progressing
Can resonate to everything, keep growing
[Empty line]
