Thorn Garden
You've kept me in the darkness now for oh, so many years
To sit alone and hold myself and count my falling tears.
You never cared about my hopes, or tried to ease my fears,
But you try to tell me what you've done is not what it appears.
And the side you were on was always just your own,
And you still haven't changed, not now that you've flown.
You've remained the same woman that I found I'd never known,
And you don't believe it's fair that you should reap what you have sown.
You gave as little as you could, and took what you could take,
And never did a thing for anybody else's sake.
You never worked with me to find the life that we could make,
And the love I tried to build, you finally found a way to break.
And the side you were on was always just your own,
And you still haven't changed, not now that you've flown.
You've remained the same woman that I found I'd never known,
And you don't believe it's fair that you should reap what you have sown.
I would have liked to raise our children in the sun,
To see them laugh and play with you, to teach them to have fun,
To bring them up to walk with us, and help them learn to run,
But running's all you know, and now my hopes and dreams are done.
And the side you were on was always just your own,
And you still haven't changed, not now that you've flown.
You've remained the same woman that I found I'd never known,
And you don't believe it's fair that you should reap what you have sown.
When the side you are on is always just your own,
You can't escape your troubles, however far you've flown.
I would have tried to save you if I had ever known,
But now I can't protect you from reaping what you've sown.
