[Verse 1]
Today, I will wear my white button-down
I'm tired of wanting more, I think I'm finally worn
For you have a way of promising things
And I've been a forest fire, I am a forest fire
[Chorus]
And I am the fire, and I am the forest
And I am a witness watching it
I stand in a valley watching it
And you are not there at all
[Verse 2]
So today, I will wear my white button-down
I can at least be neat, walk out and be seen as clean
And I'll go to work, and I'll go to sleep
And I'll love the littler things
[Outro]
I'll love some littler things
Today, I will wear my white button-down
I'm tired of wanting more, I think I'm finally worn
For you have a way of promising things
And I've been a forest fire, I am a forest fire
[Chorus]
And I am the fire, and I am the forest
And I am a witness watching it
I stand in a valley watching it
And you are not there at all
[Verse 2]
So today, I will wear my white button-down
I can at least be neat, walk out and be seen as clean
And I'll go to work, and I'll go to sleep
And I'll love the littler things
[Outro]
I'll love some littler things
