Dylann Taylor - Garden of Sadness Lyrics

I changed myself for you
Transformed into a tree
Holding an axe and cutting
Everyone close to me
I held out my hand
And you let go of it
I should have seen the signs then
A plot I needed to tend
I kind of needed
A tree that could withstand
Cut me free of
The weeds growing in my head
I felt the stronghold
Of the way I chose
Can you blame a young girl
Who doesn't know
The way a man can pull her down
Not let her grow up
I feel this pull inside me
To make a break for it
I'm hearing static from the
Television in the room
Antennas picking up the
Magnetic field of doom
The metal rake is melting (is melting, is melting, is melting)
The blooms are strewed about (strewed about, strewed about, strewed about)
My insides are hot enough (hot enough, hot enough, hot enough)
To burn a forest down
I needed freedom
To get myself untied
Connecting all the
Roots of my own life
I felt the stronghold
Of the way I chose (way I chose)
Can you blame a young girl
Who doesn't know
The way a man can pull her down
Not let her grow up
I feel this pull inside of me
(To make a break for it) I think I need some time
I can no longer fight it
Hold a space for a light
So it can't get extinguished
Nothin' will change tonight
It's something I need to sit with
A version that I'll say goodbye to
I'll never see her again (ooh...)
You're the only one that I ran to
But now I need to learn my own name
If I ever want to see the seeds bloom
I need to water my garden of sadness (tonight I'm running with my)
With my tears...
With my tears...
With my tears...
With my tears...
