The Garden

All live in the garden
 ♪
 The lights are always on in the street, so I never sleep
 My dreams have turned to plastic, and they rattle in my head
 And now there's concrete in the yard
 Where the sunflowers used to be
 I thought I heard your voice, but it was only the TV
 I think I'll waste away here
 I think I'll waste away
 If the world hasn't killed me yet, well, it's just a matter of days
 The poison ate our lungs up, and there's not much we can do
 If I could, I would get on a spaceship and spend my last days on the moon
 They say they're building us a garden
 So when the birds and trees are all gone
 We'll live where the sky is golden
 Bathe in artificial oceans
 But if they couldn't tap the marrow
 Every river, every sparrow
 Laying dead inside their cages
 Without their songs, they have been wasted
 They say, "Someday we'll find the answer
 We'll be climbing up that ladder
 While they burn up in the atmosphere we'll be okay 'cause
 We'll all live in the garden"
 I want to build a wall around you
 And say that I'm the one who found you
 But despite all of my virtue
 I know that I'm the one who hurts you
 Well, don't you know they lie, dear?
 There is no better place to find here
 They packed up their things and left you
 And I don't think I can protect you
 I think that I have found the answer
 Yeah, I'm climbing up that ladder
 And I'm taking my friends with me, and we'll be okay 'cause
 We'll all live in the garden
