the harvest - i just feel like posting this today

i started as a seed in the hole in the ground in my head

you came after me we eloped without a sound we rushed it

now i'm all limbs all hands all eyes all feeling

you say i'm all heart like it's a bad thing

made my way as a sprout from the seed in the hole in the ground

you say when i came out i wasn't me i was bold i was proud

now i'm all fists all mouth all talk all aching

tell me i'm all heart like it's a bad thing

we all need to grow

i became a stalk from the sprout from the seed in the hole

i would lay and talk take it down let's see what i know

i know i'm all mind lacking logic full of panic no strings

they say i'm all heart like it's a bad thing

i became a flower from the stalk from the sprout from the seed

became afraid that our love would walk right out on me

i know you're all mine full of logic now i panic cause the strings

pull on my heart like they're attacking

we all need to grow

beauty comes from ordinary soil so why don't we see it?
