"Envy Green" lyrics

"Envy Green"

Envy green grow in ivy vines that hold me
Up they go past the 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
Day brings a greater light to set apart the mornings from the nights
Back and forth they fight

Oh oh oh
Caught up in the wonder
Oh ooooooooh oh
Of one day being better
When my deepest darkest blue
And the gold that paints your sky collide
The garden comes to life

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

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

Oh oh oh
Caught up in the wonder
Oh oooooooooooh oh
Of one day being better
When my deepest darkest blue
And the gold that paints your sky collide
The garden comes to life

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

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

Oh oh oh
Caught up in the wonder
Oh oooooooooooh oh
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

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

Envy green
Envy green
Envy green

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