In Bloom

[Verse 1: Jon Foreman]

Dylan on that speaker warning

He not busy being born is dying

God, I wanna be reborn

I swear my failure ain't for lack of trying

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Foreman]

My broken history decomposes

But it's a part of me that's pushing up roses

[Chorus: Jon Foreman]

I'm a desert in bloom

I'm a desert in bloom

[Verse 2: Jon Foreman & Joy Oladokun]

The wind is torn, the world's at war

But the butterflies in me keep death defying

Dandelion seeds are borne

And all my favorite dreams are when I'm flying

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Foreman & Joy Oladokun]

I see the chrysalis going through changes

But every transformation comes in phases

[Chorus: Jon Foreman & Joy Oladokun]

I'm a desert in bloom

I'm a desert in bloom

[Bridge: Jon Foreman & Joy Oladokun]

Lеt the pain be for a reason

Thеre's a time and there's a season and I want to see this through

I'm a desert in bloom

[Verse 3: Jon Foreman]

Yesterday's tomb, tomorrow's womb

The dark is long but the dawn is soon

The light that you seek is seeking you

Let the dead seed go and watch it grow brand-new

[Chorus: Jon Foreman & Joy Oladokun]

I'm a desert in bloom

I'm a desert in bloom

[Outro: Jon Foreman & Joy Oladokun]

Let the hard times make me wiser

My failures fertilizer for the flowers on my tomb

I'm a desert in bloom
