Melanie Baker - All My Plants Have Died

All my plants have died
The worse they get the more i try
Maybe i'm just not fit for this kind of life

All my friends are sad
And i'll admit i feel just as bad
What is the point in getting up early just to waste more time?

Are we stuck in slow motion just watching our lives go by?
If this was a movie, it felt kinda scary for a while
Everything is overrated
I wish i was more understated

Isn't it so mad that everybody's basically a lab rat
In our suit and ties
Trying to just get by as the mean machine goes on

I sit in my living room
Writing songs for me and you
I have given up trying to make them sound good

Are we stuck in slow motion just watching our lives go by?
If this was a movie, it felt kinda scary for a while
Everything is overrated
I wish i was more understated

I killed all my plants over night
I tried to bring them back to life
But every time i tried i got too damn sad and then i tried to
Start a rock and roll band
All my friends are tired and i'm tired of being so tired
I tried to build a garden but it dried up in a fortnight
Everybody's working hard to pay their bills and get a better job
And go for runs and write some songs and make some art
Buy a house and cook good food
Not be sad and not be lonely
Make new friends and fall in love
Make more money money money
Go to therapy and go to school
Try to be so fucking cool
Maybe i will go to space or maybe i'll just go to hell
I'll buy a yacht i'll be famous and really really happy
And maybe then i'll pay someone to look after my plants for me
Maybe then i'll go to sleep and never have to worry
I'll never have to worry no i'll never have to worry
I'll never have to worry no i'll never have to worry
I'll never have to worry no i'll never have to worry
I'll never have to worry no i'll never have to worry
I'll never have to worry no i'll never have to worry
