Dead Gardens Songtext
von Outline in Color

Years on years too long
I thought I had this
I thought I had this
Self-made hell, I′m in a shell
With all my sadness
With all my sadness
Is this worth it?
You're not perfect
I′m not perfect
Maybe all we are
Are kids counting shooting stars
Now make a wish
Give me back my hearth!
I'll always regret giving it to you - Giving it to you!
'Cause yesterday we had it all
I never knew how far we would fall
All of our flowers grew up these walls
But they don′t grow here anymore
No they don′t grow here anymore
Buried in Dead Gardens


This all ends in arson
I'm stuck with what we had
Why can′t we just go back?
Are you worth it?
It's not perfect
We keep our enemies in our beds
So we′ve learned to sleep with eyes open
Violent lives ending in violence
This is not a dream
I'll never sleep again!
′Cause yesterday we had it all
I never knew how far we would fall
All of our flowers grew up these walls
But they don't grow here anymore
No they don't grow here anymore
Why can′t we just go back?
What scares me is living
′Cause dying is easy
I think that you forget that - time is unforgiving
I see your life in still frames
In retrospect, no respect, just regret
Our worthless games
Who the fuck are you to tell me not to look back?
My mind goes pitch black!
So keep me - a promise
Promise me we'll never be - those kids who learned to love their chains
And please stay, always
Don′t leave me in this disgusting place
Watering these Dead Gardens alone
'Cause yesterday we had it all
I never knew how far we would fall
All of our flowers grew up these walls
But they don′t grow here anymore
No they don't grow here anymore
No they don′t grow here anymore
No they don't grow here anymore
