"Cactus" lyrics

With my arms spread wide
Like a cactus I
Reach on up
Toward the sky
The warmth it's warm
And I realize, realize

Love is blue
Love is green
Love is everything between
You are here
Among the rest
Do you love yourself the best

Then the birds circle in
A wounded me
And they too need to eat
And so does everything
I get it now
But I'll never understand
Why or how

Love was you
Love was green
Love was giving everything
You were there
And I abreast
But you don't love yourself the best
No you don't do ya
You don't do ya

You were scared
Of course I was scared
But you couldn't meet me just halfway down the stairs
No you couldn't meet me anywhere
So I'll sing it loud and clear

Love ain't blue
Love ain't green
So I'll pour myself to sleep
In my cave of loneliness
Deep into a womb of regret

And I'll learn to laugh again
For now I guess
I'll love myself the best
