Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro | tempo ~84 BPM, indie alt-folk, soft acoustic guitar + light room reverb, low piano, vocal intimate, conversational timing] Click—MSN, driest season seen in centuries They found ships in bodies of water starved Too much sun or not enough rain Didn’t think it meant anything— but it stuck [Verse 1 | acoustic stays, light kick halfway, vocal forward, natural phrasing, pauses intact] How’s your day? Good. Nice out, huh You said it like that— I just said “yeah” Could’ve asked more …didn’t If a flower’s in her name does it bloom or hold shape I keep thinking if I do it right maybe it’ll stay Seen leaves turn— called it a phase Said it’ll come back— I always say that [Chorus | soft drums, subtle bass, fuller guitar, vocal open but controlled] I got sunshine I got rain Got more than I can blame Tryna grow it right this time— say that every hour Still pouring into something I know is gone Still watering a dead flower [Verse 2 | drums pull back, tighter rhythm, vocal more direct] Maybe I gave up Said it was the soil so I didn’t move Kept it the same, called it loyal Truth is I just didn’t choose Kicking rocks, dirt in my heels Knew something in it wasn’t real Watched it bend, watched it thin Still kept pouring into it Grab a blade just for the feel See if thorns cut me first If they don’t maybe it’s dead— or maybe I made it worse Kept saying “it’ll grow” so I didn’t change Thought I was patient— I knew what it was— I just locked it in place [Chorus | fuller, slight vocal strain, light doubles] I got sunshine I got rain Got more than I can blame Tryna grow it right this time— say that every hour Still pouring into something I know is gone Still watering a dead flower [Bridge | stripped: piano + ambient guitar, no drums at start, vocal raw, loose timing] It needed light I called it space Ringtone different don’t buzz the same Message on delay “Did you water it today?” Truth is I saw it drying out …didn’t change a thing Keep asking if it’s on me like I don’t already know Too much sun— not enough rain I broke the pot Don’t know if that helped [Final Chorus | full but restrained, after last line drop drums, guitar + piano sustain, slow fade 10–12 sec] I got sunshine I got rain Got more than I can blame Tryna grow it right this time— say that every hour Still pouring into something I know is gone Still watering a dead flower
