How does your garden grow
You plant the seeds of doubt,
sprinkling them on my tongue
the roots dig in
find their way to my heart and strangle
vines grow into my brain
a bud forms and grows
You tend to your new garden carefully
nourishing each new blossom
willing each secret to bloom
daring each happy memory to turn to longing
and it does
I wonder how this makes you feel
Have you gained anything through this mutual heartache?
You wonder why I cry all the time
It's the fruit of the blossoms that kills me
sprinkling them on my tongue
the roots dig in
find their way to my heart and strangle
vines grow into my brain
a bud forms and grows
You tend to your new garden carefully
nourishing each new blossom
willing each secret to bloom
daring each happy memory to turn to longing
and it does
I wonder how this makes you feel
Have you gained anything through this mutual heartache?
You wonder why I cry all the time
It's the fruit of the blossoms that kills me
