All The Grass is Green

from .​.​.​in Green by Oui Ennui

about

A song about the concept of the grass being greener on the other side. I was newly married in new city. First time living in a proper city as an adult.

lyrics

If everyday were yesterday
I'd always have some money left
In its place I've got regrets
I really can't afford this breath
Its just as well is just a sigh
At wasted time pondering why
We live again...only to die
Comfortable in the wool
That We are swearing by...and...

ALL THE GRASS IS GREEN!

I am not alone
Though sometimes it feels that way
I am leaving home...it
Feels more familiar away

We are not at odds
We both love the sound of your voice
Let's pretend it's hard
Let's pretend there's a choice

Don't you go lookin puzzled
Instead would you riddle me this
For an ignorant suitor or sucker
Would you spare me the bliss or the kiss

I am not alone
Though sometimes it feels that way
I am leaving home...it
Feels more familiar away
