Lyrics

Deep within your eyes I see what hides behind your smile What happened out there To make you so scared As to chase these wicked miles? How many have come and gone? Another brother, another son Another passerby So many ways to say The lies find their way To the image in your mind And it's not all it seems In some gardens green Black thorns are waiting To wound tender hands The dark fruit they're ripe on Is hung on a vine And who dare not pick it Will find love is to pray Let it end, let's begin Saw you sitting there In a boat on a trail Down a river smooth and wide And on the shore I stare With our people standing there As our mother floats on by As the river took a rib A storm did begin And blew the sky away And it's not all it seems In some gardens green Black thorns are waiting To wound tender hands The dark fruit they're ripe on Is hung on a vine And who dare not pick it Will find love is to pray Let it end, let's begin Oh, let it end Let's begin I remember you walking Through the park of red scars Our temples in smoke To tame for his mark This tapestry we weave Of black thread and bright string On a loom of tears and time The fire all but dead A cold lays 'round the bed As she whispers, "It's all a lie It's all a lie" And it's not all it seems In some gardens green Black thorns are waiting To wound tender hands The dark fruit they're ripe on Is hung on a vine And who dare not pick it Will find love is to pray Let it end, let's begin Oh, let it end Oh, let's begin Let it end
