The Lonely Leaf

[Verse 1, clean vocals]
I'm the green in the corner, the fern you forgot
Once the pride of your window, now a dry lonely spot
You used to sprinkle me daily, gave sunlight that shone
But these days I'm wilting, just brittle and bone

[Verse 2, clean vocals]
Remember when you brought me home, set to thrive
In that pot, I was alive, photosynthesizing jive
But now I'm just a backdrop, part of the decore
You don't see me anymore, my leaves dropping to the floor

[Chorus, screaming vocals]
Neglected, I'm checkin’, no affection, I'm stressin'
In the shadows, just guessin', need your presence, it's pressin'
Water me, man, can't you see that I'm messin’
Turn back to me, stop this plant from depressin'

[Bridge, clean vocals]
A little water, a bit of your time
Could lift me up, make this climb
Don’t let me fade in this dim-lit rhyme
A splash of care, let our lives intertwine


[Chorus, clean vocals]
Neglected, I'm checkin’, no affection, I'm stressin'
In the shadows, just guessin', need your presence, it's pressin'
Water me, man, can't you see that I'm messin’
Turn back to me, stop this plant from depressin'

[Verse 3, screaming vocals]
I’m the silent plea in your urban retreat
A touch of nature, man, I'm more than just neat
Don't let me go out in a whisper of brown
A bit of your love could turn this all around

[breakdown] 

[Outro, hushed vocals]
So here’s to the life that we both could revive
With a drop of care, I can more than survive
I'm not just decore or some forgotten chore
I'm alive, let me thrive, let’s restore what you swore
