Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got lost in the garden
And crossed a boundary
Where garden meets wilderness
I felt the shift profoundly
We would've been unlikely
We would've been fractious
And in my mind, I buried us
Right beneath the Taxus
[Chorus]
Lying side-by-side after life
I feel my rotten heart burn as I yearn
To feel some warmth, to be alive
In my mind, I buried us side-by-side
[Verse 2]
We belong to the earth now
Right beneath the Taxus
In the land of what-ifs
Would we have been too fractious?
Or wonderfully unlikely?
Would we have shone brightly?
Whenever I close my eyes
We're still dancing in the afterlife
[Chorus]
Buried side-by-side after life
I feel my rotten heart burn as I yearn
To feel some warmth, to be alive
In my mind, I buried us
In my mind, I buried us
In my mind, I buried us side-by-side
[Verse 3]
There was much haste, there was no time
No eulogy, no wake
But I've been silently humming our threnody
And weeping while walking away
Away, away, away
[Bridge]
I got lost in the garden
And crossed a boundary
And when you crossed mine
I felt the shift profoundly
[Chorus]
Buried side-by-side after life
I feel my rotten heart burn as I yearn
To feel some warmth, to be alive
In my mind, I buried us
In my mind, I buried us
In my mind, I buried us side-by-side
[Outro]
Oh, I've been silently humming our threnody
And weeping while walking away
I've been silently humming our threnody
And weeping while walking away
