Flowers in My Garden
Yasmin Nur
Spending hours staring at the ceiling
Counting cracks and losing feelings
I bit my nails so short, bled all over my mom's porch
Ripped the flowers out the ground
Put the dirt all in your mouth
Plant yourself into the ground
Hoping you'll grow someday
Don't you wish you could just grow in my garden
Don't you wish you could be where the Sun don't shine
Don't you wish you could fall asleep at night
But you want to go in my garden tonight, tonight, tonight
Put a pillow on my face
Watch me scream and suffocate
You're getting pleasure from my pain
Satisfaction is all you gain
Put the flowers on my grave
Kissed my casket and walk away
I was such a pretty girl
And it was such a shame
Don't you wish could just grow in my garden
Don't you wish you could be where the Sun don't shine
Don't you wish you could fall asleep at night
But you want to go in my garden tonight, tonight, tonight
Don't you wish you could see all of the flowers
Don't you wish you could stare right into the Sun
But when you search for love and flowers in my garden
You find nothing there and everything is dead and gone
Don't you wish you could just grow in my garden
Don't you wish you could be where the Sun don't shine
Don't you wish you could fall asleep at night
But you want to go in my garden tonight, tonight, tonight
Don't you wish you could see all of the flowers
Don't you wish you could stare right into the Sun
But when you search for love and flowers in my garden
You find nothing there and everything is dead and gone
