Garden of Me
Flowers were planted here Beautiful and delicate I needed help to tend them I never learned to do it alone
Flowers were planted here Beautiful and delicate I needed help to tend them I never learned to do it alone
Why must suffering exist? Why must love ones never return? Why must we endure hardship while those above us never learn?
Three kisses to tell you to wake up Ten kisses to say it's time to go Twenty kisses because I want attention and one kiss because I love you
Lots of people have helped me They showed me how to spread my wings Lifted me up, helped me take flight But then, I didn't know where to go
As your time here ends And you say farewell to old friends
Everyone here is sad to see you go But worry not, we're happy for you, I hope you know
I made this for you It's not much Just a paper flower Folded with care
I've watched you weep for burned bridges Long for times now long gone I've seen you cringe under accusing eyes Clinging to the past, unable to let go
There was a time when we were happy There weren't many other people with us But we didn't need anyone else We were happy to be together
Endings are hard To look back at something At someone And know that it's only a memory
A flame went out A guiding light to millions One that had burned where few like it had burned before
