Wisteria (Unkept) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And this is where we fall
Sleepers scattered in the soil
A finger deep, dragged through the ground
A blessed thought in harrowed halls
We could think of nothing else
Than what our patch of earth contained
Reminded by our dirt-stained clothes
Of planted possibility

[Pre-Chorus]
In tender ground, as bare as birth
A shoot emerged from beneath the earth

[Chorus]
Mary, Mary
Tell me how your garden grows
Tell me what it takes to come alive
To see what you have sown
'Cause I've grown into the ground
And there are branches in my bones
I am overgrown
I am overgrown

[Verse 2]
Between two branches, a rope and tire, we cast
Between two worlds, each one higher than the last
I chose the air, chose higher still and left an Eden found
But in abandon, lost my grip, and shattered, chose the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
In unkept chaos, as bare as birth
A garden, grey of tangled earth

[Chorus]
Mary, Mary
Tell me how your garden grows
Tell me what it takes to come alive
To see what you have sown
'Cause I've grown into the ground
And there are branches in my bones
I am overgrown

[Bridge]
I've been lying here too long
The branches pushing me apart where weakness showed
Then September swept the overcast aside
Dusted off the winter's curse
As she cut me through like knives

[Pre-Chorus]
She whistled proudly her season's song
And showed me that I was alive all along

[Chorus]
Mary, Mary
Tell me how your garden grows
Tell me what it takes to come alive
To see what you have sown
'Cause I've grown into the ground
And there are branches in my bones
I am overgrown
I am overgrown

What did Hands Like Houses say about "Wisteria (Unkept)"?

“Wisteria” is one of the first song concepts that came about, and ended up shaping the direction for the album. It’s about a time in my life when I was completely torn between two different paths I could take and I had a lot of trouble reconciling what I wanted. In a way it’s actually a continuation...
