Eden Lyrics
among our leaves.
To pick a rose you ask your hands to bleed.
What is the reason for having roses when your blood
is shed carelessly?
It must be for something more than vanity.
people that we dream.
We're not as close as we could be.
Willing to grow but rains are shallow.
Barren and wind-scattered seed on stone and dry
land, we will be.
Waiting for the light arisen to flood inside the
prison.
And in that time kind words alone will teach us, no
bitterness will reach us.
Reason will be guided another way.
devours our time in Eden, in our Paradise.
Will our eyes see well beneath us, flowers all divine?
If we wake and discover in life a precious love, will
that waking become more heavenly?
Beautiful song.
I love this song. I think it's about trying really hard to work through problems in an interpersonal relationship, and the narrator envisions what things could be for the individuals in the song but they can't grasp it.
this has always been one of my favorite songs. i had never even focused on lyrics until this song, just because i understand music more readily than words. but something about this song always got me to wonder. i tend to see it as a beauty and love in the grasping for a perfect knowledge...not the knowledge of figures and stats but rather a greater understanding of the vulgar state of being.
@coder5150 I realize your comment is rather old but the song is timeless just like the entire album. I do concur with your comments- what an astute and deep observation...thank you for your intelligent and thoughtful comments.
