The Dirt
Ain't gonna say it with roses
Beneath the roots buried deep underground
Lies the truth, if you want me to show you
I'll go and get the shovel right now
Before the weeds took it over
Before the rocks broke the neighbors plow
This garden was a chapel of hope dear
But there ain't no hope for it now
So trust me
We can't blame the April snow
The winter was dry and cold
And left us ten below
Trust me
It's best just to let things go
When there's no room to grow
And there's nothing left but holes in the dirt
The grounds still shaking from thunder
Of devils marching with broken snares
And the lightning leaves no shadow of truth babe
In a sky too dark to compare
To wilted souls burnt in ashes
Left in love from the sacred fire
If water was the passion of dreams dear
Then this drought was just made up in our minds
So trust me
We can't blame the April snow
The winter was dry and cold
And left us ten below
Trust me
It's best just to let things go
When there's no room to grow
And there's nothing left but holes in the dirt
Ain't gonna say it with roses
Beneath the roots buried deep underground
Lies the truth, if you want me to show you
I'll go and get the shovel right now
Beneath the roots buried deep underground
Lies the truth, if you want me to show you
I'll go and get the shovel right now
Before the weeds took it over
Before the rocks broke the neighbors plow
This garden was a chapel of hope dear
But there ain't no hope for it now
So trust me
We can't blame the April snow
The winter was dry and cold
And left us ten below
Trust me
It's best just to let things go
When there's no room to grow
And there's nothing left but holes in the dirt
The grounds still shaking from thunder
Of devils marching with broken snares
And the lightning leaves no shadow of truth babe
In a sky too dark to compare
To wilted souls burnt in ashes
Left in love from the sacred fire
If water was the passion of dreams dear
Then this drought was just made up in our minds
So trust me
We can't blame the April snow
The winter was dry and cold
And left us ten below
Trust me
It's best just to let things go
When there's no room to grow
And there's nothing left but holes in the dirt
Ain't gonna say it with roses
Beneath the roots buried deep underground
Lies the truth, if you want me to show you
I'll go and get the shovel right now
