Picking flowers from the garden in my mind
What made them grow?
By now you know that I haven't been so kind.
I wanna know, that when it's cold, you'll still wither by my side
I wanna know, that when I'm whole, you'll forgive the part of me I left behind.
Save my tired soul
From the bitter biting cold
I don't want to feel at home when I'm alone
Shed my calloused skin
And the harm it's holding in
I don't wanna be the ghost you used to know
Give me back the sense of calm inside my chest
A panicked breath
A staggered step
I've always been a nervous wreck
Was it the pills that made me numb?
Or is it just how I've become
From the dreams where I would find you but you'd turn around and run
Keep you in my mind tucked away in my garden
Watch my flowers bloom as my soul leaves my body

Last night I dreamed of you again, but this time, the context was unclear.
Was it a foreshadowing of my future? Or just a tunnel with light at the end?
Were we born with the curse of desire, or is it just in our bones when we're dead?
Will the fractures in our minds heal quickly, are we simply too broken to mend?
There was pain in your voice, you were hiding your eyes.
For a lingering moment I felt so alive.
My mind was like quicksand, absorbing the time.
Leaving space for our trembling hearts to divide
Tonight I'll dream of you again, but this time I'll read between the lines.
This time I'll have to be more careful to avoid the very traps that I designed.
You are the cold that collects in the night air.
You are the moment before my first breath.
You are the sun and the shadows beneath it.
My brightest light and my darkest contempt.
Who'd have known that the burden you buried was the same one I'd held in my chest?
Would you guess that the flame you ignited would burn you till nothing was left?

Who gave you the right to weigh the worth of a life in your hands. Hands so big they're almost never full. This way we live our life is gonna be our death as long as we never learn to truly accept each other as equal man.
We all come from different rivers feeding with the same mouth. We are the tributaries going to the falls until we all come up as one.
I'm swimming up stream with the rest avoiding the claws that reach, the claws that reach to pull us to our death. And you know, I never really thought about it like this until I wrote this song, but this way we live our lives is gonna bring us to our end as long as we never learn to truly accept each other as equal man.
We all come from different rivers feeding with the same mouth. We are the tributaries going to the falls where we all come up as one.
The life I've led has been short so far, but all these lessons that I've learned, I promise they're nothing short of scars and I made a promise to myself that I would learn from all those who wanted to teach, and teach all those who wanted to learn to make this world a better place.
And I'll bring this to the street, I'll bring this to the sky, I never wanted this to be another fight. Who would've thought that this would've been such a fight. I only thought what I was doing was right.
I never wanted this to be another fight, I only thought what I was doing was right."

If I could trade my life for yours, what better time than now? This is the hardest thing I've ever had to say, please don't think that your memory is gone.
This house will never be the same without you here to see, without your soul to guide. If I could show you all these memories running through my mind, a feature film.
My body brings me back to an easier time with you by my side. My body moves along these streets in feet of weightlessness.
This house will never be the same without you here to see, without your soul to guide. If I could show you all these memories running through my mind, a feature film.
I've never seen so much pain in your eyes. Your voice so hoarse with your questions inside. As this cold, cold wind blows, we all know what's next. Never forget.
I made a promise to myself that I'd never forget. But I'm still finding pieces of you in the air, and on the floor. I set this table for two, and here I wait for you to come back. An open window, or a flower, petals reaching, stretching, to the sky.
I made a promise to myself that I'd never forget. But I'm still finding pieces of you in the air, and on the floor. ”
