[Verse 1]
We're in the rain, in outer space
And I can't fathom an explanation for what we're doing in this place
Now your hair clings to your cheek
I brush it aside ever so gently, thank you for being here for me

[Chorus]
It's not easy staying clean, wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen
It feels like I'm slipping behind a screen of nightlights and suicidal tendencies
It's not easy feeling cold like burning numb hands under a water stream
Wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen

[Verse 3]
We're in the snow, under the milky way
And no matter how hard I try to, I can't possibly explain
My shaking hands and my breaking bones
There's nothing like whispers in your mind to keep you aware that you're alone

[Chorus]
It's not easy staying clean, wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen
It feels like I'm slipping behind a screen of nighlights and suicidal tendencies
It's not easy feeling cold like burning numb hands under a water stream
Wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen

[Verse 5]
In moments like this it's hard to breathe steadily
The world is spinning and my hands shake uncontrollably
Life's a hair, one gentle blow and it could be gone
And I've never felt so afraid

[Verse 6]
We're on the earth, on solid ground
Do you have any idea how lucky you are to be around
You're not alone, please never forget
My arms are your second home
