Made it (made it)
All the way to your heart
To trim off (just to trim off)
all the weed that's grown wrong
because of people (oh those people)
who didn't know how to plant-
a seed there (and a seed here)
They didn't know your soil babe

So they assumed and dug holes
where they thought they belonged
And they broke all your roots
to assert where they're from
But you let it go on
for you needed their love
And they saw how it felt-
that they were your sun

Yet I made it (made it)
all the way to your heart
To keep there (to keep there)
all the weed that's grown right
because of people (all those people)
who knew how to plant-
a seed there (and a seed here) 
They knew your soil babe

So they learned and dug holes
where they knew they belonged
And they cared for your roots
to assert where they're from
And you let it go on
for you wanted their love
And they saw how it felt
that you were their home

So you made it 
all the way to your heart 
To feel there
all the weed that exists
because of you babe
you knew how to care 
for your soil there
You knew you mattered

I would call out to you if you would answer.
I would make love to you (if you felt it like I do).
It's just bad advice.
Dumped and… jacked(?)
This is not my life
It's just a fond farewell to a friend
Who couldn't get things right
YOU GOTTA SMILE AND IT SEEMS TO ME THat ahh nah nehehhnehhh-
fuggin dick. yep.

Knew you were debased. You kept yourself a part of what I could not have been.
Make me
your last love
before I make the rest
so small
You're so small
you're so small
You are and you're shouting down on me
You're so small
You're so small
and I could break you.
(I would break you)
How much more so, seeing it happen
How much torture (I'm twisted)
and worn out
You're tight
and wound to breaking.
I've been broken by you.
All this time, my love, it's time.

(Like I know you do)
I'm not the same man
(Like I know you do)
you were waiting for. This changed
into some harm
and you tore me. As disorder reigns
disorderly (sailerrr)
And I'm facing the fate
(I'm the last you'd tell)
I'm under stress.
She's under me
and I'm looking, baby.
I'm looking baby
right in her eyes
(And I don't care)
The fate of my mistress
(And I don't care)
she's waiting to 
take
it.
Something waits for her
waits for her 
it's-

It's the last time I see you
It's the last time I see you
Nowhere for trees to stand
In the street
We'll be rid of them
Be rid of them

But, hey

The last place where trees stand
In the middle of the street
The last place where trees stand
No one needs to see
Least of all, me

The last place where trees stand
In the middle of the street
The last place where trees stand
No one needs to see
Least of all, me

I won't make it all that way
(stop)
I wasted away
(maybe)
And I won't make it-
make it all that way.
Just make it through the day.
No, it's a long, long way.
make it through the day,
and it's a long, long way.
