Prickliest Pear Video (MV)

Large birds gather along the radio tower
It's unsettling
Like the sound of the telephone ring
But
The setting sun
Stretches the shadows of the insects in this parking lot
I'm chasing a feeling that I forgot
I can't really tell if it was real enough
In my dreams, I'm running through the tangled weeds
And my heart is made of sunflower seeds
The happy paddles of the prickly pear plants in that field
Kinda, sorta, make me feel like it's worth being here and...yeah

I want to be a light in the lives of everyone I know
But I feel like a darkness that makes it hard for love to grow
And I know some of this is just inside my head
I know

I know it feels like I'm always bracing for impact
And I know that I really need to stop that
But I feel like maybe I deserved
Each one of those rat traps
Not with you, though
(Not with you, though)
I feel so different now
The whole world
Just feels brighter, somehow
Yeah
