If, for example, I suddenly disappeared from here Would at least one person come looking for me? Can I wait for someone to find me Believing that people are kind? What's harder? Growing up Or being an innocent child? If you're to blossom Then we should stop asking questions like that In this crowded city that's overflowing with people Is there at least one person who'll listen to me?

If you're to blossom Then we should stop asking questions like that What kind of strength does it take To just proudly grow straight up Even if you're trodden on When you know that someday your petals will fall? What's scarier? Looking back on the days you've spent Or anticipating the future? If you're to blossom Then we should stop asking questions like that
