In This Garden Lyrics

Monday morning opens once again Will the day that greets me be my friend? Stayed up too late last night once again Trying to suck the marrow out of life Again again again The truth is terminated before it's time Like the silence of an unwanted child Inspiration inspiration inspiration Come to me like a melody 'Cause I'm ready now yes I'm ready now In this garden I'm waiting In this garden I'm waiting Father tells me now the worlds so bad "Never used to be this way when I was your age!" But we get pictures from a satellite Finding evil that was always there but out of sight I'm ready now Salvation where are you and where do you hide? I think I'd rather father live today Influenza it won't take me to my grave In my bedroom with my TV on The world can entertain me No viking ship will take me I'll sue you if you rape me Conscription is evaded A black man liberated I'll make love to my baby Words & Music Paul Colman Fill My Cup Come on you lately come on and rescue me Been at you lately but I've been more at me Love is a lesson I never learned at school Sick in bed that day and so I play your fool Sick of this sea-saw of going up and sown Promised consistency to you in my wedding vow Call me up whisper in my ear Fell like a calendar from another year Fill my cup to the top with running water Call me out and show me how Talk to me without manipulation Shoot from the hip you'll shock the congregation Wake me up whenever supper's ready Break bread and wine but still I'm feeling empty You gotta show me how show me how I feel light I could float up to you weights and all I feel like a bridge on the water connecting your shore Start me up and let me fly with you This barren ground these bones are dry and empty Words & Music Paul Colman Breaking Point You pushed 'till the breaking point until the hammer fell Even took away the choice but you were free to go Silence and reason all on the floor And now you're standing at your post Though your mind says go Cold arm of change brought you low no alimony He said you were free but you got nowhere to go Nowhere to run or hide your painful story Seems so similar similar to mine You're spinning in a hoola-hoop waiting waiting Free to stay free to stay I'm free to stay but I just can't go! You pushed till the breaking point until the hammer fell Even took away the choice But you were free to go Words & Music Paul Colman
