lyrics

big leaves in the garden aren't what we planted
seeds from our dreams in our hands become leaves
although i try when i wake i wanna be so strong
i take pills just so i can get along

big leaves in the garden are grown before we parted
big leaves in the garden are grown before we parted
big dreams in my head wanna sing till I'm dead

now I'm alone and I'm strong to the bone
coughing up things like smoke rings and diamonds
with my feline friends companions to the end
companions to the end

big leaves in the garden aren't what we planted
dead weeds in the garden aren't what we planted
big dreams in the garden are what we planted
big dreams in my head wanna sing till i'm dead
