Life's a Garden Lyrics
You feel their eyes upon you
You hear their words behind you
What do they know about you?
Cuz they'll tell you what you should be
Tell you what you should do
They'll never believe in you
Somebody should have told you
It never comes easy
Somebody should have told you that
There's no guarantees
That you lose it all
When you stop dreaming
There's no way to know
If you run away
There's no looking back
This is your time to stand up
This is the time to fight for
All that you know and you believe
You owe it to yourself to
Find out what you're meant for
There's no way to know if you run
Somebody should have told you
It never comes easy
Somebody should have told you that
There's no guarantees
That you lose it all
When you stop dreaming
There's no way to know
If you run away
There's no looking back
They tell us who to be while ignoring all our dreams
So we'll throw it away
Why is it they can't see we're who we want to be
We'll throw it away
Why can't they see
That we'll never be who they want us to be
We'll never be
We have too many dreams
Too many dreams to just throw them away
You hear their words behind you
What do they know about you?
Cuz they'll tell you what you should be
Tell you what you should do
They'll never believe in you
It never comes easy
Somebody should have told you that
There's no guarantees
That you lose it all
When you stop dreaming
There's no way to know
If you run away
There's no looking back
This is the time to fight for
All that you know and you believe
You owe it to yourself to
Find out what you're meant for
There's no way to know if you run
It never comes easy
Somebody should have told you that
There's no guarantees
That you lose it all
When you stop dreaming
There's no way to know
If you run away
There's no looking back
So we'll throw it away
Why is it they can't see we're who we want to be
We'll throw it away
That we'll never be who they want us to be
We'll never be
We have too many dreams
Too many dreams to just throw them away

Hands down their best song, only problem is I simply hate listening to this song without the video being on.
Love this song, best part is there's almost no screaming.
I love music with a good, heavy dose of screaming, but there's no way I listen to these guys for the screaming in their music. I listen to It Dies Today when I want to hear screaming, but I personally think these guys are at their absolute best when their lyrics aren't screamed.
We all kind of guessed that this song's about being your own person, not letting others tell you what to do, and stand up for what you believe in. Wow who would have guessed.
I hate when I have to sit and think about what a song's about. And I don't get most songs, haha...
But I love the screaming too. This song has an awesome message
"This is your time to stand up This is the time to fight for All that you know and you believe You owe it to yourself to Find out what you're meant for There's no way to know if you run"
"Why can't they see That we'll never be who they want us to be We'll never be We have too many dreams Too many dreams to just throw them away "
yeah! great song!
Life is a garden bcuz if you don't take care of your garden, the people step on in it and make dirty it. We have take care of our garden and meke it beautiful.
^^
Really good song. Greeley estates is sex!
"Why can't they see That we'll never be who they want us to be We'll never be We have too many dreams Too many dreams to just throw them away"
Best fucking song ever
Great song and even better message. I think its about being your own person because life is so short(Garden representing the life and death cycle). Good message on never to give up on what you believe in too. I hope to hear more from Greeley Estates!
It is because of this song is why i love emo music sooo much. i owe great thank to this... It opened my eyes and relise the life i was living. Thank you Greeley Estates!!! =]
Hummm, Beliving in yourself and nevering giving up is what this song is about :] I dont think its emo cuz its trying to make you feel better! how is telling you not to give up emo? But anyways, this was the only song i knew by them I just download it bunch of GE music becuz im going to go see them in 4 days. I was going to go see Hawthorne Heights, But the tour canceled, RIP Casey Calvery
Wow... Greeley isn't emo, sorry.
yeah. they're not emo. they're actually christian. if you look at the song let the evil go east it explains it all.
