Compost Lyrics & Tabs by Wise Children
Compost
guitar chords lyrics
Even if it scares you--
Tearing things apart,
You need the end to show you the start.
I know we said that things
Would always be this way,
But we could only break each other's heart.
I threw you on the compost today,
When your body became overripe.
Time drew out the sweetness
As you slowly fell apart
In my mouth.
And I hope for this:
That you'll be reborn,
And in new life you find everything and more.
Fermenting in the darkness here
That you'll be reborn,
And in new life you find everything and more.
Fermenting in the darkness here
Could only ever hold you back.
'Cause even if it scares you--
Tearing things apart,
You need the end to show you the start.
I know we said that things
Would always be this way,
But we could only break each other's heart.
I'll reach in and pull you
From the earth one day,
When our bodies learn that they've grown apart.
Spring will be upon us
And the dark days will have left no trace of snow.
We'll know in this we've both been reborn,
'Cause in our faces color will return.
Eye to eye, we'll look inside
And on our ground we'll both feel secure.
'Cause even if it scares you--
Tearing things apart,
You need the end to show you the start.
I know we said that things
Would always be this way,
But we could only break each other's heart.
