"Garden For My Soul"

Am I a black mark in your mind
Lying dormant all this time
A stain you can't erase
Cause when I'm gone you're always fine
But when I'm there you tell me I'm
A ray of light you can't replace
Blank stares on every face

Roses in bloom, and I'll be there soon
The world you promised me
A garden for my soul, a place their hate has no control
Please, just promise me

Why did you make me this way
Like I'm always meant to stay
A foot away from any thing
When I'm so desperate to be close
A mile gap I'll never close
A numbing song I choose to sing

Roses in bloom, and I'll be there soon
The world you promised me
A garden for my soul, a place where hate has no control
Please, just promise me

Far away, from all of this
The escape I can't resist
All the pain clenched in these fists
Will fade away

Like roses in bloom, and I'll be there soon
The world you're promising
A garden for my soul, where everything will be made whole
Please, please
