Kevin Morby - Nothing Sacred / All Things Wild lyrics

Bitter garden, bitter leaf
Bitter earth, bitter seed
Nothing here is sacred, dear all things wild
You're gone now for so long
You grown a child

And when you were young you used to plead
And when you were young
You used to plead to make me believe

Nothing sacred, all things wild
Nothing sacred, all things wild

Bitter water, bitter sea
Bitter dirt, bitter tea
Everything we do is a mess
But oh, honey, may this mess be blessed

And when we were young we knew everything
And when we were young
We’d claim to sing and kick and scream

All things sacred, nothing wild
All things sacred, nothing wild

Bitter blue, bitter green
Bitter you, bitter me
Sorry for poisoning you with my song
I'm sorry now, but I won't be sorry long

And when you were young, dumb and mean
What did you mean when you’d scream

Nothing sacred, all things wild
Nothing sacred, all things wild
