[Spoken Intro, Juliet]
There is a fertile darkness
Lying behind the mask of stale answers
And questions that no longer work

[Verse 1, Juliet]
I’m in the garden at night
Digging, digging, digging, digging
Knees damp, kneeling in moist dirt
Hands caked with the rich cool earth
My back and shoulders tire
Sore muscles complain
As I reach, reach in and search
Needing this pain, this doubt, this hurt

[Chorus, Juliet]
There is a fertile darkness
Lying behind the mask of stale answers
And questions that no longer work
There is a fertile darkness
Lying behind the mask of stale answers
And questions that no longer work

[Verse 2, Juliet]
The moon is waxing full of blue spotlight
On a background of pitch
I will not leave my perch untended
Nor this soil unturned
I will not leave my perch untended
Nor this soil unturned

[Chorus, Juliet)
There is a fertile darkness
Lying behind the mask of stale answers
And questions that no longer work
There is a (there is a) fertile darkness
Lying behind the mask of stale answers
And questions that no longer work

[Outro, Juliet]
No, no, no, no
Here’s where I lean in
Feeling, feeling to find new answers
I lean in
Feeling to find new answers
To find new answers
Find new answers
