Rainbowfish

If God is a white dude with kind eyes and a man bun

Then I am a hummingbird with gills like a rainbowfish

And maybe I'm just saying shit, but maybe we all are

Waxing poetically won't win you a medal

If love is a river, we're all fools with buckets

Wading in carefully, avoiding the rapids

And being pulled under is a treacherous fate

But maybe it's true to be loved is to be changed

Been dreaming of ghosts in my sleep

And nothing makes sense anymore to me

Why can we love so deeply only to drown inside of grief?

If God was a tree and she lived here on Earth

She'd probably be cut down to build her a church

And if grief was a river, we all would be drowning

Gulping in gallons of tragic surroundings

And I know it seems morbid, but I keep getting visions

Is it better to wonder than yell out and scream it?

Been dreaming of ghosts in my sleep

And nothing makes sense anymore to me

Why can we love so deeply only to drown inside of grief?

If we're controlled from above

How do you explain evil?

But if it's all just a damn free-for-all

How do you explain anything, anything?

If God is an orange tree with hundred-foot roots

Then I am a fly with an eye for her fruit
