Our Love is Like a Burning Garden Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She surrounds me, my God, she astounds me
And everything she does will make me weak
Take my heart now, go ahead and break my heart down
Be careful with the words you choose to speak

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause it's Judgement Day, and she's a little bit angry
Might get a little bit reckless with my heart
It's too much these days
She says she really wants to love me
But then again she might kill me
'Cause that's who we are

[Chorus]
It's hard to understand
This relationship is a burning garden
Break my heart like kindergarten
I hate you, then I'll beg your pardon
I love you now lets plant a garden

[Verse 2]
Give me fire, my girl, she's a liar
She told me she was at her friend's last week
She was with him, I know that she was with him
And when I think about it, I can't sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
Now it's Judgement Day, and I'm a little bit angry
Might get a little bit reckless with her heart
It's too much these days
Oh, I really want to leave her
But then again I still need her
It tears me apart


[Chorus]
It's hard to understand
This relationship is a burning garden
Break my heart like kindergarten
I hate you, then I'll beg your pardon
I love you now lets plant a garden

[Bridge]
We burn a beautiful flame
We burn a beautiful flame
We burn a beautiful flame
We burn a beautiful flame
We burn a beautiful flame
We burn a beautiful flame
We burn a beautiful flame

[Chorus/Outro]
It's hard to understand
This relationship is a burning garden
Break my heart like kindergarten
It's hard to understand
This relationship is a burning garden
Break my heart like kindergarten
I hate you, then I'll beg your pardon
I love you now lets plant a garden
I hate you now I'm breathing carbon
Our love is like a burning garden

Genius Annotation

The way I take this song is that he’s in love with this girl, who he is madly in love with. She cheats breaking his heart and breaking the “Garden”. The garden can be a metaphor for their love and how it starts off so beautiful and then starts to get worse and the garden ends up burning, like their relationship.
