Empty Gardens Lyrics by Theophonos

Ashes in the Huron River

2024

I’ve had enough of ghosts and grids
Trenches, barbed wire, and shovels
How many years are left in my wrists
My shoulders, knees, and back?
And when I was younger
I thought there’d be no end
To cheap rent and blogspots
Where did it all go wrong?
Why is it so hard to be free?
I know the answer — it’d be far too cliché
I just want to know:
Where did everything interesting go?
And would I have made it to twenty today?
Where did everything I loved go?
And what gives you the right to put up all these fences?
You are the true gentrifiers
Enjoy your empty garden
In order to kill the weeds, you killed everything
You killed the arts of my generation
And someday you’ll be buried too
And when there’s nothing but pious silence
Maybe you’ll hear the voice of God:
You were too good for heaven
Maybe there’s room in hell
Where you can wear your old Burzum shirts
