i messed this up, i'll have to reupload (temporarily bringing it back) *old version*

Lyrics:

That scene still comes to mind every now and then
How she yelled at me in front of all of them
And it felt as though she had frozen time 
As she started listing all of my heinous crimes 

Those words going back and forth in the back of my foreign mind
I must admit later that day I cried thinking to myself

Am I the spindle that gets them to sleep?
Am I the icy ground that gets them to slip?
Am I the one who turns their gold into dust?
I must be an anti-midas

That scene it comes to mind when they bring it up
A Halloween to waste let go all the fun
And maybe I've been like this my whole life
I just haven't come yet to realise

Had all the leaves up on trees but the fall of my mind
Couldn't let them remain on the branches of my heart
But you'll see some trees keep their leaves even in the winter
Yet what's the point? If we're all gonna withdraw

Am I the spindle that gets them to sleep?
Am I the icy ground that gets them to slip?
Am I the one who turns their gold into dust?
I must be an anti-midas
Yeah, I must be an anti-midas

Desperate to contradict
Your negative verdict
Ended up doing some things
That I do not take pride in 
Ironic then how I was
Asked to write 5 qualities
By a woman advised by 
The same one who had told my friends 

I was the spindle that got them to sleep
I was the icy ground that got them to slip
I was the one who turned their gold into dust
That I was an anti-midas

Maybe all of this time
She, she has been right
I've now come to realise
I truly am an anti-midas (ooh)

When I changed perspective as to fit in your narrative
Your wicked definitions are all I have known since

(I am an anti-midas, I am an anti-midas, I am an anti-midas, I am an anti-midas)

yeah i know the flower in the cover isn't a tulip
but whatever 

Lyrics:

Grateful for what we've created, a colourful vivid imagery: sunflowers, dianthuses, periwinkles, daisies, cornflowers, geraniums and birds of paradise
It's crazy how I can still picture it in my mind, even tough it has been quite a while

I wouldn't have guessed, wouldn't have guessed the storm would break above our field with all the flowers that we'd planted
I'd take it all back, take it all back just to see a single seed sprout up from the dirt we'd once sown in

It was all to waste, everything we nurtured when the sky turned gray and rain came pouring 
All at once, our plants were dying and our meadow was no longer striking
Maybe I gave it too much but I was just making sure our plants wouldn't die of thirst
But ironically, they ended up as the opposite drenched in all of my sour tears
From the day you left that mess and took my secrets, my trust, my best and my dignity in the process
The remains were sadness, destruction and regret

I wouldn't have guessed, wouldn't have guessed the storm would break above our field with all the flowers that we'd planted
I'd take it all back, take it all back just to see a single seed sprout up from the dirt we'd once sown in

Now you're out there with your new friends planting dandelions on a green field
And you know what? I am happy, I wish you everything
But it hurts to watch you from here
It's like you have totally forgotten me
Was I this easy to erase?
Did I have this little impact?
I'd be happy, if you ever dared to come back

I wouldn't have guessed the storm would break that day
I'd take it all back to make it all be okay
I wouldn't have guessed the storm would break that day
I'd take it all back, take it all back to make it all be okay

I wouldn't have guessed, wouldn't have guessed the storm would break above our field with all the flowers that we'd planted
I'd take it all back, take it all back just to see a single seed sprout up from the dirt we'd once sown in

So I planted a tulip in the meadow after the storm
And waited for it to bloom to gift it to you
Cause after everything we've been through
It was the least I could do for you
(Can we go back to what we used to?)
But after all the time and after all the effort
After all the hurt I planted in your phantom
The beauty of the plant, its heavenly white petals
Were not pretty enough for your new meadow


gnily - tulip (demo)

get this little treat while supernova's stunning show of lights doesn't yet reach earth and sea of emotions doesn't yet come crashing in :)

Lyrics:
I dreamt about you last night
Again, I am not alright
You get me out of my mind
While you are there the whole time

I'm so caught up in your smile
I stop whenever you walk by
It's a parachuteless flight
I've embraced the free fall

There's no going back now
I've stepped into gory combat
It's an armourless war
All there's left is to accept this
Hopeless defeat (mmm)
As I watch you leave

gnily
