The Garden

(album: Few - 2017)

My beloved, did you return to the river?
My beloved, did you come to check on me?
Since you left me all alone, locked in, you shiver
Did the sight of me bring weakness to your knees?

The darkness you never knew
Could creep up inside of you
And guide an atrocious hand
Can't be undone again
And the darkness inside of me
Is all that I ever need
And I will return again
And I'll come to get even

My beloved, do you see me when your eyes close?
My beloved, do you wake reaching for me?
As the body you once held begins to decompose
You'd be better off not going back to sleep

The darkness you never knew
Could creep up inside of you
And guide an atrocious hand
Can't be undone again
And the darkness inside of me
Is all that I ever need
And I will return again
And I'll come to get even

The greater mystery still lies ahead
The greater mystery still lies ahead
The greater mystery still lies ahead

My beloved, did you feel my heart start beating?
Did you gasp the moment I drew in a breath?
When I finally drug my body through the threshold
Did it break your heart before you met your death?

I told you I was coming!
