One step forward, two steps back. I burned all the bridges, now I regret.

lyrics

THE BURNING GARDEN

one day he struck a match
and set fire to his home
and set fire to the trees in the garden

and he burned what he had built
and he danced around the flames
beneath his feet the grass was turning grey

in the wilting heat he felt
all the power in his hands
and his face began to glow, his heart to race

when the walls had all come down
he cried with relief
wrapped himself up in his coat and he was gone

and he did not mind at all
that he had no place to go
he was in no rush to settle down again

yesterday when you came by
I paid you no mind at all
let me please apologize for the cunt I was
