lyrics

I’ve been picking away at rainbow concrete
Using only my nails, tools are too heavy
Come all you fair and tender girls
Keep your garden fair, safe from the world
It’s hard to raise a bed, a bed of weeds
It’s hard to keep your head above someone’s knees

I once had a sprig of thyme
It prospered both day and night

Anything you want from me you take won’t you dear
Any limb that's left for me you’ll choke patiently
Suffocate my painted virtue false, false man
The pink, the blue, the violet too
The grey concrete

I’ve been giving away things that you gave me
Anything at all unless it’s worth money
But I refused the will of bloom
To feed the ground cover rue

That all the world may plainly see
How my love slighted me
And I gained the willow tree

Where do you go? I know...
