Topher, D.Cure - The Garden lyrics

There once was a girl in a garden
Who wondered one day what she'd be
The soul and the mind did not harden
While watching the death of the leaves

The mind of the young and the innocent
Free from all the hate and the ignorant
Faults of humankind, no remembrance
Thoughts of positivity minus negative images
Their love erases all the blemishes
That we receive from life scrimmages
A consequence of being born
In different villages
That shape their world view
Before forming any sentences
They’re supposedly taught how
They should function in a world full of
Adults abandoning their unction
They see order's nonexistent
Rampant with dysfunction
War is common place but what
Is rare is compunction
Compassion is a ration not
Often served with dinner
Now they can't go out to play until
They stop and pick their gender
It can be a lot to process
A lifetime before it render
But, I pray that on playback
You see the whole agenda

There once was a girl in a garden
Who wondered one day what she’d be
The soul and the mind did not harden
While watching the death of the leaves

She found the biggest tree where she'd
Be tethered to a rope
Tied a double knot to make her
Way from out the smoke
No one there to help her
She brought along hope
To make her way back to
The place she called home
Felt a tug at every turn like "come back"
Who's pulling my strings
Saying "give me some slack"
She's not a afraid of a
Feeling when they overreact
Rope kinda frayed, caught in the flame
Hard to retract watching every rose wither
Toes feel thorns splinters
Then knows He's with her
Hard to be home before dinner
Mom promised to deliver but was
Tried as an intruder never cried
She roared like the Lion of Judah
I've been chastised and taxed I
And not into it (Intuit)
I won't sit inside ruin
You don't treat me like a human
The faith kept inside
More real than those refuting
She felt tied to a tree now
That girl is an illusion

There once was a girl in a garden
Who wondered one day what she’d be
The soul and the mind did not harden
While watching the death of the leaves

She dug her hands in the dirt filled ground
Grasping for something unseen
Knowing that her powers had no bounds
She held unto the nothing in the leaves

There once was a girl in a garden
Who wondered one day what she’d be
The soul and the mind did not harden
While watching the death of the leaves
