about

This track takes place within a dream. After finally falling asleep (a short lived rest), I dreamt that I was with the love of my life, about to fall asleep for what I felt was the last time before death came to claim me. As I went to sleep within the dream, ready to die, dream me dreamt he saw his love. They planted a tree together and watched it grow. She lead him back home, away from death's embrace, so he could wake again by his love's side.

lyrics

Here I sit so patiently,
Hoping you will talk to me,
About what’s wrong,
The heavy cloud,
That came along with
All our vows of love,
It’s raining down,
Dressed in jeans we sit in shame,
Side by side we play these games,
Where no one speaks,
No not a word,
Will ever sneak out to be heard out loud,

Take your time, one, two, three,
Help me build up the industry,
I can’t sleep a single wink,
With this heavy heart I hold,
It’s you I love, it’s you I need,
It’s you who makes my body bleed,
It’s you who makes my paltry little house become a home,

All night long you talk to me,
About your troubled family,
And all the ways you tried to add,
A little taste of dear old dad to me,
(And I smile anyway)
Just one more sip, my coffee cup,
I’m so damn tired I can’t stand up,
And as you lay me down to sleep,
I pray, the lord, my soul won’t be reaped out,

Take you time, one, two, three,
One more morning is all I plea,
And as I sleep you come to me all dressed in red and white,
You hand to me a bag of seeds,
That must be sown to replace our greed,
Take my hand and lead me till our home is back in sight,

Here I sit straight up in bed,
I gently kiss you on the head,
To wake you up and have you drink,
My favorite cup of coffee, sink back down the bed,
Through the good, and through the bad,
Side be side we’re all we have,
And we will grow as tall as trees,
And shadow all the days when we were sad,
