Garden of Eden (lyrics)

negative thoughts  

set in cement

finding flaws  

in compliments 

what is real 

what is pretend  

I know many people

but I’ve got few friends

 

negative thoughts 

ring the doorbell

I twisted the lock 

but they picked it well   

Oh these negative thoughts 

Like spiders from the drain 

They crawl onto my body 

And into my brain 


And I

know how to swim but I just don’t 

know how to land but I just crumble

when I fall

know how to smile but I just frown 

know how to swim but I just drown 

it’s not that I don’t know how 


in the garden of Eden 

sometimes i sleep 

ignoring the demons 

that make me weep

but when i wake 

I long for the night 

cause like a poisonous snake 

the daytime bites 


And at some point in time 

you think could all the lies be true? 

And you let out your cries 

only to realize 

it’s just you ...


stuck in cement

finding flaws

in everyone’s compliments 

feels like needles  

pricking my skin 

if only people 

seemed genuine 

oh if only people 

we’re genuine 

just leave me in 

the garden of Eden
