[00:11.07] I've walked the distance,
[00:12.42] I paid my dues and tried to have a go at
[00:14.55] what I thought I knew was real, held
[00:18.14] no appeal
[00:20.39] I've been to places, I've seen the tidings,
[00:22.83] I bought a book of rules for every coin that I could steal
[00:27.97]
[00:29.22] And so I came to gaze upon the stars,
[00:35.27]
[00:37.44] when they were yet unborn
[00:39.00] And consequently, tear at my old scars,
[00:44.65]
[00:45.79] and the mask I had outworn
[00:48.70] So when I'm crying alone
[00:51.56]
[00:53.46] Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[00:58.31] Grow me a garden of roses
[01:02.83] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[01:07.84] Teach me to speak with their voices
[01:12.35] Show me the way and I'll try again
[01:18.13]
[01:26.87] I've heard the rumors, started fires,
[01:29.38] I sowed a sordid lot of plays for keeps for what I need, behold
[01:34.65] the demons that I freed
[01:36.59] I've tried my best at wearing the hard hat,
[01:38.97] but healing doesn't seem to happen when you hide away the
[01:41.86] seed
[01:43.68]
[01:44.49] And so I came across the medicine man,
[01:51.27]
[01:52.33] and he showed me what I'd forlorn
[01:54.73] For if I'm stayed it happens by my own hand,
[02:01.12]
[02:01.81] and my own voice full of scorn
[02:04.25]
[02:04.82] So when I'm crying alone
[02:07.89] Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[02:14.30] Grow me a garden of roses
[02:18.00] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[02:23.76] Teach me to speak with their voices
[02:27.97] Show me the way and I'll try again
[02:33.59] Without you I'm nothing at all
[02:38.66] And life has the face of a morbid game
[02:43.13] With you nothing seems impossible
[02:47.22] It all seems to fit the frame
[02:52.35]
[02:54.82] So when I'm crying alone
[02:59.21] Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[03:04.17] Grow me a garden of roses
[03:08.42] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[03:13.58] Teach me to speak with their voices
[03:18.22] Show me the way and I'll try again
[03:23.25] Grow me a garden of roses
[03:27.63] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[03:32.90] Teach me to speak with their voices
[03:37.62] Show me the way and I'll try again
