John Darnielle - The Garden Song lyrics

I see the flowers in your garden are in bloom I see the flags are flying high I hear you've gone and rearranged things in your room I guess you're trying to cut-off my air supply I came toward your window, real slowly I knew deep down I was about to strike oil I guess by the now the flowers in your garden know me I felt them trying to get at me through the soil My bare feet felt the cool, soft dirt Moving up my ankles, but I don't fear you The thorns began tearing at my shirt But I didn't even care when they tore clear through Your garden can't hurt me Your flowers don't threaten my life Your garden can't hurt me anymore Your flowers don't threaten my life
