Sorry Sunflower from untitled [2021] by Patchouli

open the curtains lemme see the sun
I haven't been outside for a while
"so sorry sunflower, I can't do that
you'd wither away in the light of the day
cuz you're weak
you're weak without me
you're weak on your own
so call me your home."

keeping the love I held in my heart
enduring the shouts that'd tear it apart
see in your eyes a familiar disguise
the person that I thought you were

am I weak?
am I weak without you?
tell me, is it true?
am I a monster to you?

hiding the fangs that I thought I had
do whatever I could to not make you sad
no matter what I'd do or I'd say
I'd always seem to be in your way

so you left
you left me behind
it's my fault in the end
but that's what you pretend

am I weak?
am I weak without your love?
no, the love that you gave
would've dug me a grave
so I'm free
I see the world clearly
for the very first time
I am living my life

draw back the curtains and I'll see the sun
I'll say "hello" give the world a smile
"so sorry sunshine, it's been a while
let's catch up on all our lost time"
