The Garden Lyrics

I've been breaking my teeth

And giving up so much sleep

Just to tow the line between you and me

And somehow it's still worth it

And I don't feel like I deserve this

We've been taking our time and reassessing

Clearing my mind and cleaning up messes I've made

And that's what I call progress

I'll hang you upside down

So you don't have to fade out

So take me to the garden

And let me take your test

I know I should be grateful for the black ink on my wrist

And if I am to fail you

Just throw me with the rest

The purgatory of years past, and those who'd not resist

I've always wanted you to see me in another light

But not the kind where I'm stuck riding backseat of your car every night

I know what your going through but

I know I can't fix it for you

The problems keep on coming

And I'm too worn out to start running away

I can't convince you to help yourself

So why can't I just leave?

So take me to the garden

And let me take your test

I know I should be grateful for the black ink on my wrist

And if I am to fail you

Just throw me with the rest

The purgatory of years past, and those who'd not resist

I'll hang you upside down

So you don't have to fade out

So take me to the garden

And let me take your test

I know I should be grateful for the black ink on my wrist

And if I am to fail you

Just throw me with the rest

The purgatory of years past, and those who'd not resist

I will resist
