I cough—and crimson flowers bloom on my palms faster than the atom bomb can fall As roots grew out from cells—you were yelling at trees—you couldn't move—you were just yelling at trees—yelling at trees "Because that's all we really are! Just a different combination of the same thing. Like padlocks" and it's not oak trees, but it's sapplings—and that's a start to a something we don't have a name to. You plant the seed of insanity into my mind,

We Built a Garden
I cough—and crimson flowers bloom on my palms faster than the atom bomb can fall As roots grew out from cells—you were yelling at trees—you couldn't move—you were just yelling at trees—yelling at trees "Because that's all we really are! Just a different combination of the same thing. Like padlocks" and it's not oak trees, but it's sapplings—and that's a start to a something we don't have a name to. You plant the seed of insanity into my mind,
We built a garden and living things don't catch fire but you burned it.
