about

dang it what else can i say other than josh is one of the faves. one of the many beautiful songbirds i get to call a homie. the whistle at the beginning of the track refers to a story i could only ever really tell well in person. but the jyst of it is that right before a performance in Cleveland Ohio, Josh told me he had a bird song. I said no way me too. he then played the song for his VIP audience and ACTUALLY WHISTLED. I was like no way this is my soulmate ._. i wish that i could say that this is where it ends

lyrics

this is for you, josh

it started by a waterfall
under rainy skies
we tried to smoke a bag of Hopes
but they wouldn't light

swam along Vale a ton, with her schoolclothes on
Izumi found a wedding ring made of solid gold

we pretended it was ours
we pretended it was ours

now we're undernearth
and the summer breathes

that i wish that i could say that this is where it ends
it was the first and final day that i remember being
happy as a bird
flying in the sky

high

check out the birds

now my mother just abandoned us
before we woke
and i'm only sure she's gone for good
cause she left a note

and i still feel my skin in the place she kissed
my sleeping head

the only words i heard her whisper were
"i did my best"

anna thought it was a dream
anna thought it was a dream

but father's in his chair and hasn't moved for days
just soak in every moment while the TV plays
he's dying in the living room but it's okay

guess together everybody goes their separate ways

hey Izumi please
take care of me
Zumi please
take care of me
can't do it by myself
I need somebody else
