Lyrics
APHID
DAVE DID
DAVE DID
HE GAVE ME SEEDS HE DID
HE GAVE ME SEEDS DAVE DID
I PLANTED THEM IN MY HEAD
I GREW A GARDEN WHERE I PLAY
INSTEAD OF WORKING
THEY FLOWERED METAPHORS THAT SPLASHED
TINY RAINDROPS
TINY RAINBOWS CRASHED
WE HID
WE HID
IT STARTED RAINING WE HID
IT STARTED RAINING IT DID
HIDING BEHIND LEAVES
THAT GREW IN THE GARDEN
IN THE GARDEN DO YOU SEE THEM
ALL APPLES BLOSSOM IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT
WHERE ALL GODS CHILDREN PLAY IN THE GARDEN
EAST OF EDEN
APHID
APHID
A TNIY BUG APHID
A TINY BUG APHID
PRAYING LITTLE INSECTS WE EAT OUR YOUNG
BREEDERS OF SPITE
HATE ROLLS OFF OUR TONGUES LIKE POISON
POPPIES ON A PIN WE BREAK THE SKIN
CONSUME OUR PASSION
OUR ORIGINAL SIN IS BECOMING
