shimmering leaves under the sky
the sun's peeking out from behind
your back's flickering light
one day the last leaf will fall
and then there'll be no autumn at all
babe, i know it's wrong to feel so doomed
i just think i'm being real
'cause even if that leaf don't fall for 100 years
i won't know how to deal with what's in front of us now
so let's go to the reservoir and leave
all of our clothes on the beach
i just want there to be a world for somebody to see
when we leave
how's our rozsa gonna have a life to live?
the world ended when she was just a kid
she had no say in it
god, we all know that if she did
there'd be a whole lot that's different
like, she'd care about the world and those kind souls who live in it
she knows how dangerous it is to play with the infinite
like all of us, kids just wanna live
rozsa's in rojava it seems
fragile eggs in the basket of my dreams
just want there to be a world for somebody to see
when we leave
she was my age
she died fighting for what she believed in
if it was my name on the page
oh life, how life would be different
you know that i care so much
but i doubt that's enough
