Growth/Decay

Sleeping in my heart, there was a seed
Waiting on the rain to flow
Buried by these hands, too deep to freeze
Waiting on the sun to show
Carried by the wind, the wind it lifted
Carried like a holy scream
Grew a thousand leaves, bore fruit, now I see:
Eden was inside of me
Change, you see, it only goes one way
Cycle to the light or fade away
Maybe I can find out one day
Why I had to grow to face decay
Witness to my own tragedy
Watching all the petals fall
Powerless, I bowed and gave up my crown
I lost it all
I lost it all
Change, you see, it only goes one way
Cycle to the light or fade away
Maybe I can find out one day
Why I had to grow to face decay
I fell in love to watch it fall away
