Lyrics:

I´ve walked the distance, I paid my dues and

tried to have a go at what I thought

I knew was real, held

no appeal

I´ve been to places, I´ve seen the tidings,

I bought a book of rules for every coin

that I could steal

And so I came to gaze upon the stars, when

they were yet unborn

And consequently, tear at my old scars,

and the mask I had outworn

So when I´m crying alone

Yeah, when I´m cold as a dying stone

Grow me a garden of roses

Paint me the colors of sky and rain

Teach me to speak with their voices

Show me the way and I´ll try again

I´ve heard the rumors, started fires, I sowed a

sordid lot of plays for keeps for what I need, behold

the demons that I freed

I´ve tried my best at wearing the hard hat, but

healing doesn´t seem to happen when you hide away the

seed

And so I came across the medicine man, and he

showed me what I´d forlorn

For if I´m stayed it happens by my own hand,

and my own voice full of scorn

So when I´m crying alone

Yeah, when I´m cold as a dying stone

Grow me a garden of roses

Paint me the colors of sky and rain

Teach me to speak with their voices

Show me the way and I´ll try again

Without you I´m nothing at all

And life has the face of a morbid game

With you nothing seems impossible

It all seems to fit the frame

So when I´m crying alone

Yeah, when I´m cold as a dying stone

Grow me a garden of roses

Paint me the colors of sky and rain

Teach me to speak with their voices

Show me the way and I´ll try again
