A garden grew between us in the love we lived without Remaining faithful to the flood, our tears have purpose in a drought Tread lightly so footprints can't disturb the bed we've made With restlessness reserved for both the bodies it contains
Aim your sharpest arrow at the center of my chest A memorial to signify the sense of helplessness We dare not mourn our past lives, our loss will be reborn Because I couldn't love who you were but you're not you anymore
Sew your skeleton to mine, I'm no good on my own Stitch yourself to either side of me so I will never be alone We mend our past mistakes as a symbol that we've grown So we no longer place our weight on top of broken bones
Mark an end to aimless roaming with a double-sided knife If we develop eyes for others, may we both be stripped of sight Liken our divide to partitions in the earth Wrapped in walls of vines, growing out of common ground
A garden grew between us Our tears have purpose in a drought
Sew your skeleton to mine, I'm no good on my own Stitch yourself to either side of me so I will never be alone We mend our past mistakes as a symbol that we've grown So we no longer place our weight on top of broken bones
Mark an end to aimless roaming With a double-sided knife Taking steps towards each other We could end both our lives (And that'd be fine)
Aim your sharpest arrow at the center of my chest A memorial to signify the sense of helplessness We dare not mourn our past lives, our loss will be reborn I couldn't love who you were but you're not you anymore
