Here in the garden
Hear the warning
Here in the garden
Hear the warning
Crumpled like a leaf
Yet buzzing with the bees
There's clearly something here to dig up
A westerly, there
Tickling the trees
Whistling the warning song
Here in the garden
Little secrets
Here in my garden
Buried regrets
Flapping their wings
Fat little things
Swear they've been snacking on my dreams
Here in the garden
Growing speechless
Crumpled like a leaf
Yet buzzing with the bees
There's clearly something here to dig up
A westerly, there
Tickling the trees
Whistling the warning song
Here in the garden
It's a party
The dusted stars
The scabben stories
The blossomed hearts
And youthful scars
Lie woken in this bed of flowers
Here in the garden
Listen boldly
Crumpled like a leaf
Yet buzzing with the bees
There's clearly something here to dig up
A westerly, there
Tickling the trees
Whistling the warning song

Only Truth

Carry me away to the river
Carry me away
Tell his mother I am sorry
That the boy is gone
Take me for a ride down the water
Take me for a ride
Just a daughter sleeping under
A mother's son
Take your places
The curtain's lifting
Faces must face
The only truth
That you don't know
Where you belong
Ain't no big surprise why he left here
When we realized how he kept fear
And oh how I kept him near
Oh yes I kept him dear
Took me for a ride down the water
Swept away my pride
Made a daughter of a mother
Still, the mother won
Take your places
The curtain's lifting
Faces must face
The only truth
That you don't know
Where you belong

Sweet Flower

Well I hear it in the water
And I see it in the layered clouds above
It's becoming such a bother
This lesson that I ought to have learned enough
Left on a whim
Took my glasses
And laced up my boots
Left without knowing
What's growing
On this side truth
Hoping it's grace that I find
'Round the corner this time
Trusting
Not knowing
The sun's gonna rise
And light up the sky
And the breeze fell sweet
Of this flower
And fond memory
Fell right to my feet
Where no lower could I ever be
Where the water would circle our dreams
If the winter had been
Oh the space between roots, rock, and soil grows thin
It's gonna be a drought this year
Oh sweet flower
Sweet flower child
This is gonna be your time
Oh sweet flower
Sweet flower child
I'm gonna let you shine
Oh sweet flower
Sweet flower child
Come home
When you've left all your troubles behind
