My mind is like an orchard
Clustered in frozen portraits
Of blossoms that bloomed so fine

Just to drop from the vine
I've seen 'em all tonight


Could keep it silent and tortured,
Or shove it unto the floorboards
A rusty heart starts to whine

In its tell tale time
So free it up tonight


Life deals a measly portion
Light on good friends and fortune
It's chipped you away inside

And drawn all your blinds
Concealed it all from sight


Could cut that final corner
Charge the void no quarter
Or skip to the final line of some

Suicide note well publicized
Or give it up tonight


Kindly reverse the order
Of the options you've laid before you
The needle, the dirty spoon

The flames and the fumes
Just throw them out
To Night


The time that you've been afforded
May go unsung unrewarded

Some nameless you cannot know
May be coming to show you
Unbridled love and light


Should you grow in an orchard
Covered in dusty portraits

Of blossoms that bloomed so fine
Just to drop from the vine
Oh, listen up tonight


Don't keep it silent and tortured
Or shove it unto the floorboards

Your busted heart will be fine
In its tell tale time
So give it up tonight
