[Verse 1] Down by the ruined fence line I found you in the rain Green leaves on your shoulders Like a saint with a pain Your eyes held a midnight Soft as a graveyard bloom Ivysaur in the moonlight Standing in my room [Pre-Chorus] And I swear, you were trembling Like the world did you wrong But your little wild heartbeat Kept dragging me on Through the vines and the silence Through the mud and the frost I saw a small green kingdom That the cold had lost [Chorus] Ivysaur, Ivysaur Call me to the dark Ivysaur, Ivysaur You healed the broken part Under that moon You made me whole Ivysaur, Ivysaur You haunt my soul [Verse 2] Old chapel on the hillside Bare boards and a broken bell I set your seed by the window Where the blackbirds fell You grew like a secret In a house full of shame One green hand on my shoulder One thorn, one flame [Pre-Chorus] And the preacher said, “Leave it” Like it was a curse But I knew your quiet mercy Could make my grief worse 'Cause the more I tried to bury What was bruised and low The more your roots kept rising Where the hard winds blow [Chorus] Ivysaur, Ivysaur Call me to the dark Ivysaur, Ivysaur You healed the broken part Under that moon You made me whole Ivysaur, Ivysaur You haunt my soul [Bridge] Now the thunder's on the meadow And the crows all know your name You don't need a golden halo You wear the rain If the road turns to a ditch line And my good luck turns to dust I'll follow your green shadow I'll follow what I trust [Final Chorus] Ivysaur, Ivysaur Call me to the dark Ivysaur, Ivysaur You healed the broken part Under that moon You made me whole Ivysaur, Ivysaur You haunt my soul [Outro] Green prayer Black sky Ivysaur Till I die
