Watching Grass Grow

Folder: 
2001

I watched you cry your bitter thoughts

Onto the ground

Where the grass sucked you moisture

dry

I watch as the world benefits from your pain

It's horrific

But it's life

I still want to hold you

Your hurt is mine

But I know that life is there

And it's going to treat some unfair

In comparison to others

I wish that it could be better

But grass must grow too

And the dirt becomes richer with your sacrifice

So there's nothing that I can say

About all the things that hurt

I can't make them change

I can't promise you any better

But I can take your hand

And be there

As we watch the grass grow

From your dreams

Our dreams
