Greenhouse

You're a cold day of August

You're strihing too shallow

You're a heart shaped box with no letter inside

You're seed on planet

Your field run fallow

Your heart's used up

You're feeling cast aside

I'm sorry that I left so soon

I left you stading at the gallows

You were all strung out

The hangman waiting for a sign

Come see me at the greenhouse

In the backyard

Come see me by the oak tree

With our names carved in the bark

Come see me at the train tracks

Bring some pennies for old times' sake

Even though I'm gone

There's some memories that you need to take

With you

Now you're working up the courage

Just to get yourself through that doorway

A big world outside, you're afraid of what you'll find

Now you're leaning on friends, finding confort and laughter

You're patching up your heart,

Finding some peace of mind

I'm sorry that I left so soon

You're stepping down from the gallows

You were all strung out

The hangman waiting for a sign

So come see me at the greenhouse

In the backyard

Come see me by the oak tree

With our names carved in the bark

Come see me at the train tracks

Bring some pennies for old times' sake

Even though I'm gone

There's some memories that you need to take

With you

You found a new lover, you went and got yourself married

You're doing all the things that we never got to do

You had yourself a baby, she's beautiful and happy

Oh lord how I wish I could've given that to you

But I left too soon

I was stading at the gallows

I was all strung out

I gave the hangman the sign

You don't need me at the greenhouse

In the backyard

Down at the oak tree

With our names carved in the bark

Don't make it to the train tracks

Bringing pennies for old times' sake

Even though I'm gone

New memories you need to make

It's time for me to fade away

I'm going home (oooh... oooh)
