"The Patch Where Nothing Grows" lyrics

I need you around, I need you around
Without you, I drown, without you, I drown

Oh, I've been looking for you in every flame
And I've been putting you into every scene and frame
My passion's branding yours

Singing with my chest pushed out
Heart against the thorny branch
Digging in, and hoping for a rose
Well, if it's always February
And this love's not necessary
I'll fall gently in this grove
In the patch where nothing grows

I need you around, I need you around
Without you, I drown, without you, I drown

Oh, yeah, I realise that I spent the night barely talking
But, see, the thing is, I, oh, well, I'm terrified of tearing down these walls of my making

My passion's tainted

Singing with my chest pushed out
Heart against the thorny branch
Digging in, and hoping for a rose
Well, if it's always February
And this love's not necessary
I'll fall gently in this grove
Oh, in the patch where nothing grows

I'd crawl to you
If I knew how to

I need you around, I need you around
Without you, I drown, without you, I drown
Well, if it's always February
And this love's not so necessary
I'll fall gently in this grove
Oh, in the patch where nothing grows
