Garden of Eden
We all fall for lies. Words can be deceptive. Promises are often broken.

I promised, last August
I put your words in my pocket
They dripped of silver
And melted to glitter
From the drizzling heat
A taste so sweet
I swallowed them whole
With no self-control
And I didn’t know
I would be left starving
And that you had to go
Go back to the Garden
I drank the juice
From the forbidden fruit
You're the apple of my eye
I breathe your supply
I need it to survive
Like the Earth needs the light
Be the sun to my sky
Make my night come alive
Although, I didn’t know
That I was eating
Eating from the Garden of Eden
So I lay here bleeding
Feed my being, please me
I need it, I need it
I’m bleeding, I’m bleeding
And I didn’t know
I would be left starving
And that you had to go
Go back to the Garden
I promise, the exotic
Something completely erotic
Dripping lines of silver
And something unfamiliar
I’ll be at your feet
Please name me your queen
It’s your words, I hold
With my entire soul
And I should’ve known
My love would harvest
That you would have to go
Sometimes words mean nothing
I drank the juice
From the forbidden fruit
You're the apple of my eye
I breathe your supply
I need it to survive
Like the Earth needs the light
Be the sun to my sky
Make my night come alive
Although, I didn’t know
That I was eating
Eating from the Garden of Eden
So I lay here bleeding
Feed my being, please me
I need it, I need it
I’m bleeding, I’m bleeding
And I didn’t know
I would be left starving
And that you had to go
Go back to the Garden
And I should’ve known
My love would harvest
That you would have to go
Sometimes words mean nothing
