The Garden Hides the Jewel
Michael Gira
[Verse 1]
The garden hides the jewel
Beneath the dirt and rotting leaves
Your skin shines white as pearl
Against your blackened bed of soil
[Verse 2]
I am the saint that falls
Upon your dreaming lifeless form
Picked up from legs accept the shade
And shine with liquid innocence
Your letter bleeds: it shows the way
To turquoise sky and golden trees
The garden hides the jewel
Inside the body of the bleeding girl
[Verse 3]
Na na, na na na, na na, na na
The saint will place the pearl
Na na, na na na, na na, na na
The garden hides the jewel
Na na, na na na, na na, na na
The saint will place the pearl
Na na, na na na, na na, na na
The garden hides the jewel
