about

Matt wrote this song.

lyrics

Flowers, mason jar long dead from lack of water
that we forgot to pour after the
sour conversations the night before you turned into...
sleeping alone with you beside me I grow old.
Patience, is what my mind is yelling at my body
when it seems my eyes cannot see clearly.
What I don't remember about this history as relevant as what I do.
Sleeping alone with you beside me I grow old.
I've been trying hard to forget the mundane
but now I can't rely on what made me happy in the old days
sometimes I don't want to be alive
it's not that I want to die it's just so hard to be happy.
I grow old...
I've been trying hard to forget the mundane
but now I can't recall what made me happy in the old days
sometimes I don't even want to try
but with you by my side you make it easier to be happy.
I grow old...
these covers connecting us enveloping these problems,
that we work out while holding one another.
I wouldn't have it any other way commitment is an effort.
Laying right here with you beside me we define growing old.
