Garden

Decomposing shell of mine
Will you accept my wrongs?
Cursed you down to the hell and back
But still you mend my holes
Vessel born to bruise and tore
I've seen this once before
Flesh, intestines, bones
Impressions last for only so long

Baby, none of this shit matters
Cut the judgement, kill the pressure

Think you're flawless, you're the hottest
But you're still just a corpse with a name
Think you're gorgeous on the surface
But surfaces crumble away
What's a paint job with no inching?
I'm just hoping you still feel the same, the same (Same)
Though, I'm only a corpse with a name

Corpse

We're like sheep, caught in the herd
The shepherds in the sky
Fixing for a pretty penny just to get us by
One-track minded, always fighting
Mindless defiance
Yeah, we follow the footsteps ahead
Should've turned around

Tripping on my toes, can't help it
Limbs all numb from my mind to help it
Don't know why I fell on the planet
It's dying and I'm dying with it

Money doesn't last so burn all the cash
I'm fallin' off the map, I'm done
'Cause this grid's like a labyrinth
I won't solve like a maze
And it's survival of the fittest, more like the richest
Take another hit, I'm done
Yeah, this grid's like a labyrinth I won't solve
Like a maze, I can't get out

Labyrinth V2

The fish always sleep in, they swim in piles like the sheep
And the shepherd's drunk off the feeling
Of power, scheming and stealing
I got a shell that's protective, I swim alone, it's the best thing
My aura's been through finessing, I don't need to impress you
My value's too high, you think you can afford it?
When your water's so dry and you're lacking abundance
I'm not talking 'bout your pockets, yeah, your wallet means nothing
I'm talkin' spiritual wealth, how did your heart get so hardened?

Pearl in a sea full of clown fish
Iridescent when I shine 'cause I'm that bitch
Ballin' and we stay baroque, oh-oh
Baby, I'm born from the inner protection
Crystallized carefully to perfection
Hold me to your chest so close

Not just expensive but patient, it took me years to create it
Something so ostentatious that Judas found me allegious
Cover them with my graciousness, they wound me, I'm healing it
And fuck it, I heal them too, what mother of pearl would do
Pay respects to my process, I'm the oyster, the farmer
I'm the pearl that is harvested, polished, pampered and promised
Then I'm sold as a product to all the jewelry shoppers
The cliché couples who want me to fix all their problems

Pearl in a sea full of clown fish
Iridescent when I shine 'cause I'm that bitch
Ballin' and we stay baroque, oh-oh
Baby, I'm born from the inner protection
Crystallized carefully to perfection
Hold me to your chest so close

Mother of Pearl

I put the seeds down thinking they would grow sprouts
You brought the sun out, watered all my past droughts
Never would assume you'd consume all the fruit then just drop out
Didn't wanna grow, there's a cop out
Pulling all the roots and the crops out

You should cultivate more patience
Bit the apple when temptation hit
Blamed it on your inexperience
Never gonna change if you don't practice it, ah-ah

Left me all by myself to let the garden grow
Planted a seed and ran
Hey, where'd the water go?
Lay me on a bed of dead roses though
Dug out a hole and sowed, that's where your body goes

Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow

You don't belong here, fucking up my fresh air
I was on my hands and knees, you were in a lawn chair
Pissing on the soil that you spoiled, I was loyal to a coward
You were just a thorn on my flower
You checked out, I was putting in the hours

You should cultivate more patience
Bit the apple when temptation hit
Blamed it on your inexperience
Never gonna change if you don't practice it, ah-ah

Left me all by myself to let the garden grow
Planted a seed and ran
Hey, where'd the water go?
Lay me on a bed of dead roses though
Dug out a hole and sowed, that's where your body goes

Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow

When I left all my baggage
When I healed all the damage
I got pulled like a magnet to you
Feels like home, it's euphoric
Made it out of the forest
Realigned with your orbit, déjà vu

Crazy how we made in different places
But we end up so close
Call it intuition, some people listen
Some keep their eyes closed
Takes time, happy that I took mine
Followed all the red signs, the signs

Magnets, coming back together, oh-oh-oh-oh
Got me feeling premonitions of us
Open arms like you know me
All our life comes unwoven
And our families are chosen
Magnets, mmm

Magnets

I don't know how to stay away from it
The smoke always calls me to play (Come play)
Tricky monsters conspire in the atmosphere
Pulling me down toward their weight

If a fire's burning garbage on the yard
I wanna save 'em but I always end up burned
My body goes through a cremation
I forget that I can't build with
Those who lack a good foundation
Always breaking (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Baby, I'm a moth and you're the flame
I kept flying
Every time you called I always came
You kept lying
Danced around your inconsistent flame
Wings are frying
Somehow I was always getting blamed

Be on your merry way, be better
Both of my antennas read you like a letter
I won't be around a fake caterpillar
Get in your cocoon
Baby, don't be bitter

Don't expect me to cradle you gently
I know that my boundaries were thin
Transformation destroyed all the pages
Of patterns we once were locked in
Now my instinct won't be rushing
To your rescue on a Sunday
When you've had enough parading
And displaying of your bouquet
It's all thorns with petals scorched
And ribbons tied so fucking loosely
Wouldn't choose it (Yeah, yeah)

Baby, I'm a moth and you're the flame
I kept flying
Every time you called I always came
You kept lying
Danced around your inconsistent flame
Wings are frying
Somehow I was always getting blamed

Inconsistent Flame

I don't really know that much
But I know that there's more than I can see and touch
Feeling suffocated, all these limitations
Fragile when I'm naked

I don't really know that much
But I know that there's more than I can see and touch
Feeling suffocated, all these limitations
Fragile when I'm naked

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
