|
I wade through the earth, |
|
Sowing my own, bound up in discords |
|
Spread in the stones, |
|
Planting deep into ready fears. |
|
Soak in these heavy rains, |
|
Break from your chrysalis beneath the clay. |
|
Though I left you behind, |
|
I'm all the while, wanting, to make my way home. |
|
All the while, watching, to see just how you've grown. |
|
I'm the seeds among you, |
|
I am emerald blades |
|
With other sides and deeper shades. |
|
I'm the weeds among you, |
|
I am constriction. |
|
I'm the tightness in your chest. |
|
I could ruin you. |
|
I am the horizon, the sinking sun, |
|
I'm the buried, the believer, the tomorrow that will come. |
|
I'm the seeds among you, |
|
I am emerald blades |
|
With other sides and deeper shades. |
|
I'm the weeds among you, |
|
I am constriction. |
|
I'm the tightness in your chest. |
|
I could ruin you. |
|
I could ruin you. |
|
Convict me of the devil in the details, |
|
Of these crimes; oh so meticulous were we, |
|
Of passion; |
|
I'll plead guilty. |
|
I'll plead guilty to every taken chance. |
|
I am tangled machinery, |
|
I am wreckage. |
|
Distinguish the scars between; |
|
The pleasure as you dragged me down, |
|
Or the shards as they dragged you free. |
|
I am the knotted anchors below the ground, |
|
I'm the shadow that weighs you down. |
|
I'm the ghost on your lips, the phantom's kiss, |
|
I'll be the page of your book that's missing. |
|
I'm the seeds among you, |
|
I am emerald blades |
|
With other sides and deeper shades. |
|
I'm the weeds among you, |
|
I am constriction. |
|
I'm the tightness in your chest. |
|
I could ruin you. |
