[Intro] x2
[Verse 1]
I've walked the distance, I paid my dues and tried to have a go
at what I thought I knew was real, held no appeal
I've been to places, I've seen the tidings, I bought a book of rules
for every coin that I could steal
[Verse 2]
And so I came to gaze upon the stars when they were yet unborn
And consequently, tear at my old scars, and the mask I had outworn
[Pre-Chorus]
So when I'm crying alone
Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[Chorus]
Grow me a garden of roses
Paint me the colours of sky and rain
Teach me to speak with their voices
Show me the way and I'll try again
[Instrumental] x2
[Verse 3]
I've heard the rumours, started fires,
I sowed a sordid lot of plays for keeps for what I
behold the demons that I freed
I've tried my best at wearing the hard hat,
but healing doesn't seem to happen
when you hide away the seed
[Verse 4]
And so I came across the medicine man, and he showed me what I'd forlorn
For if I've stayed it happens by my own hand, and my own voice full of scorn
[Pre-Chorus]
So when I'm crying alone
Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[Chorus]
Grow me a garden of roses
Paint me the colours of sky and rain
Teach me to speak with their voices
Show me the way and I'll try again
[Middle 8]
Without you, I'm nothing at all
And life has the face of a morbid game
With you nothing is impossible
It all seems to fit the frame
[Pre-Chorus]
So when I'm crying alone
Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[Chorus] x3
Grow me a garden of roses
Paint me the colours of sky and rain
Teach me to speak with their voices
Show me the way and I'll try again
