Lyrics
The Petal House
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What went wrong?
I left the womb expecting to find
Someone who gave no sign
Of wasted time or failure
Southern grounds were not as good
Wild sun and violent floods
Overwhelming motherhood and strangers
Smile, child
Seeds are signs to know your way
Cherish them
They'll avoid your failure
Don't look now
The signs have blown away
None are left
We expect your failure
