Gardener Lyrics

Cupping my hands to my mouth

Calling for you to come out

I was hoping to find you filling in all of the holes

Dug in preparation for my family, my lover, my friends

Mark in all with a headstone

Show that you truly cared

You're more prepared for their absence

Not when they needed you there

Look out at this garden, at this garden

Counting up all of the plots, you thought

About what will grow

Over your corpses while they rot

Oooo, oh

Oooo, oh

Ooooooo

Oooo, oh

Oooo, oh

Ooooooo

Searching the backyard to find you

Digging up another hole

Say "thank you for your patience, in time you will know"

Which is special for you, a grave alongside your loved ones

Mark in all with a headstone

Show that you truly cared

You're more prepared for their absence

Not when they needed you there

Look out at this garden, at this garden

Counting up all of the plots, you thought

About what will grow

Over your corpses while they rot

I used to tend to flowers

Loved watching them grow

Everyday a new surprise of life

Powering through

I used to move the Earth

my nails crusted in dirt

I used to hold the very thing

That turns us into dust
