Jenny Dna - Waste

I turn my head & I follow the sun
From the east at dawn, till the darkest of dusk
& I want to be still but I'll move every day
Till I bloom
I close my eyes & I see you in dreams
& I always wake up with blood on my hands
& there's blood on my sheets & I can't wash it off
Though I try
& if you heard me
Would you try to touch me
Would you tear my stem apart
Or wait until the spring?
So when you see me sinking under the soil
With the blue of the sky & the red of the sulfate
The songs that they sing as they rot & decay
Are the notes that I need when I'm shedding my skin
& when you see me buried under the dirt
Then I'll ask you to pray that my roots burrow deep
& I'll let the iodine run through my veins because
I wanna bloom like a sunflower laid over waste
I think of you as I lay supine
Like the deadest of nature, the stillest of life
& I ask that the next time you see me you reach
For my hand
& if you took me
In your arms & held me
Would you keep me there, or
Would you let me fall?
So when you see me sinking under the soil
With the blue of the sky & the red of the sulfate
The songs that they sing as they rot & decay
Are the notes that I need when I'm shedding my skin
& when you see me buried under the dirt
Then I'll ask you to pray that my roots burrow deep
& I'll let the iodine run through my veins because
I wanna bloom like a sunflower laid over waste
