A little rest It's been a long hard road You're tired and you deserve it So lay back Let the sounds fill your head Marvel At how they seep into your body Like a pure drug And lift your spirit Find a soft pillow I'll stand watch As you tear it all down When it gets too hard When you fear letting go And the sights to see On the other side of the wall You're tearing down Let me be your fortress Together we will gather The broken pieces of your days And I will slowly put them back together Just slowly enough For you to feel the love That comes in my reassembling And leave behind Everything that tore them apart Everything that tore them apart I will cause you to forget As we lay As we melt into one each other As we melt into earth Flesh of My flesh Bone of My bone One seed Planted by Death To sprout and grow Into new life In a new garden Settle your thoughts Receive calm for your shattered nerves Though they are shot I will ride shotgun I am love This world is a mirror You see it as in reverse The reality: Reap Sow Plant I am the Farmer I love you Because you know Me For what I am You know That I am not Grim That my sickle serves a purpose It's blade, sharp and shiny A two edged sword Brings you to this place Where enlightenment never dims or fades We will ride it together Until harvest has come You and I will be One Until we both realize We've got a spare rib
