Dying on the Sill

Verse 1

Dry brittle bones

Tapped on the glass

Yellow leaves curled in the corners

Sinking into the grey

Pre-Chorus

I tried the misting

I checked the drainage

Everything feels too cold

Chorus

Don't let the green turn to gold

Stay for a little while

Stay for a little while

Drinking the morning up slow

Drinking it up

Verse 2

The fern is shedding feathers

Filling the cracks

Light barely reaches the plastic

Wishing for better rain

Pre-Chorus

I tried the misting

I checked the drainage

Everything feels too cold

Chorus

Don't let the green turn to gold

Stay for a little while

Stay for a little while

Drinking the morning up slow

Drinking it up

Bridge

Brown at the edges

Quiet and sinking

I watch you wither

Wait for a reason

Watching you fold away

Chorus

Don't let the green turn to gold

Stay for a little while

Stay for a little while

Drinking the morning up slow

Drinking it up

Hook

Don't go

Wait a minute

Don't go

Wait a minute

Green to gold
