[Verse 1]
I put the seeds down thinking they would grow sprouts
You brought the sun out, watered all my past droughts
Never would assume you'd consume all the fruit than just drop out
Didn't wanna grow, there's a cop-out
Pulling all the roots and the crops out

[Pre-Chorus]
You should cultivate more patience
Bit the apple when temptation hit
Blamed it on your inexperience
Never gonna change if you don't practice it, ah-ah

[Chorus]
Left me all by myself to let the garden grow
Planted a seed and ran
Hey, where'd the water go?
Lay me on a bed of dead roses though
Dug out a hole and sowed, that's where your body goes

[Post-Chorus]
Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
[Verse 2]
You don't belong here, fucking up my fresh air
I was on my hands and knees, you were in a lawn chair
Pissing on the soil that you spoiled, I was loyal to a coward
You were just a thorn on my flower
You checked out, I was putting in the hours

[Pre-Chorus]
You should cultivate more patience
Bit the apple when temptation hit
Blamed it on your inexperience
Never gonna change if you don't practice it, ah-ah

[Chorus]
Left me all by myself to let the garden grow
Planted a seed and ran
Hey, where'd the water go?
Lay me on a bed of dead roses though
Dug out a hole and sowed, that's where your body goes

[Post-Chorus]
Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
Garden, it won't grow
Tied the hose, off you go
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
