The sky above me
Is falling around me
And I cannot see the sun
Lurking behind the clouds
The rain from darkness
Is tumbling down on me
And I sit in silence
As it hangs over the ground
This garden of mine
Is burning slowly
The flowers aren't there
And these thorns in my hair
Are growing wild
My tears keep flowing all the while
In this garden of mine
Too dry to handle
Too wasteful to care
And I cannot bear the wait
Taking over me
The time just lingers
But nothing is changing
And I cannot take the chance
As I sit here all alone
This garden of mine
Is burning slowly
The flowers aren't there
And these thorns in my hair
Are growing wild
My tears keep flowing all the while
In this garden of mine
I look back at the footprints
Left in the ancient soil
They're walking away
It's time to erase
That part of my life
This garden of mine
Is burning slowly
The flowers aren't there
And these thorns in my hair
Are growing wild
My tears keep flowing all the while
In this garden of mine
