In Bloom

Dylan on that speaker warning

He not busy being born is dying

God, I wanna be reborn

I swear my failure ain't for lack of trying

My broken history decomposes

But it's a part of me that's pushing up roses

I'm a desert in bloom

I'm a desert in bloom

The wind is torn, the world's at war

But the butterflies in me keep death defying

Dandelion seeds are borne

And all my favorite dreams are when I'm flying

I see the chrysalis going through changes

But every transformation comes in phases

I'm a desert in bloom

I'm a desert in bloom

Let the pain be for a reason

There's a time and there's a season and I want to see this through

I'm a desert in bloom

Yesterday's tomb, tomorrow's womb

The dark is long but the dawn is soon

The light that you seek is seeking you

Let the dead seed go and watch it grow brand-new

I'm a desert in bloom

I'm a desert in bloom

Let the hard times make me wiser

My failures fertilizer for the flowers on my tomb

I'm a desert in bloom
