The Needle Garden (Remastered)

Step soft, it’s bleeding again Don’t wake what sleeps beneath the roots It’s growing in the silence… just for you I plant the secrets where the light won’t reach Bury the voices underneath each leaf They bloom in silence, dressed in red and rust A garden watered by the ones I trust Don’t pull the stem It remembers names Don’t breathe too loud Or it starts again In the needle garden, I wait for the sting Where the petals cut deep and the lullabies sing You touched the thorns, now you wear the crown In my needle garden, we all break down You stepped inside, said it smelled like rain But all you found were roots of shame Each vine remembers what I’ve denied Now it’s your turn to bleed inside Don’t trace the path It will lead you home But the gates don’t open Once it’s overgrown In the needle garden, I wait for the sting Where the petals cut deep and the lullabies sing You touched the thorns, now you wear the crown In my needle garden, we all break down I bloom in silence, made of pain Wrapped in vines that know my name I told you not to follow me But now you’re rooted—can’t break free In the needle garden, I wait for the sting Where my heart has teeth and the spectres sing You wanted beauty, but I gave you scars Now you’re buried here beneath my stars So don’t forget to water me… I grow best in tragedy
