Alvin Maker's Greensong Lyrics - Singles - The Scene Aesthetic

Fighting to keep this alive 

Constantly fighting to keep myself going 

Dear friend, I haven't the slightest desire 

To help keep you going 

Keep to myself all the time 

(Kid it's better that way) 

Try to avoid all the lines 

(But I can't have you stay) 

And the things that they say 

Fighting to keep this alive 

(Kid it's better that way) 

Constantly fighting to keep myself going 

(But I can't have you stay) 

Please don't run from your problems 

You can't keep running, there's no place to go 

As you escape from your life 

This house becomes hollow 

And all we can do is just wait 

Sit here and wait for this train to arrive 

I've got my bags packed and I've said my goodbyes 

Constantly giving into these moments 

That just bring me down 

Just bring me close enough to stay around, to stay around 

Keeping to yourself is no way to live your life 

You can't fight what's coming 

And all that you can do is sit back and realize, we'll be there 

Cause you keep waiting for someone to save you 

Embrace you and take you away, far away 

Take you so far from this place 

Running away, so far away 

Running away, so far away 

I can't stay, I can't stay with you here 

I can't stay, I can't stay with you here 

As you escape from your life 

This house becomes hollow 

And all we can do is just wait 

Sit here and wait for this train to arrive 

I've got my bags packed and I've said my goodbyes 

Constantly giving into these moments 

That just bring me down 

Just bring me close enough to stay around, to stay around 

But I won't stay around
