The Garden's End
Sarah Blasko Lyrics

Oh I can hear you breathing
I am aware of your presence around me, as I can hear you breathing.

You're picking up my scent
You are trying to sense my presence by following my scent.

You're trying to hunt me down
You are pursuing me with the intention to overpower me.

In the hope that I'll give in
You expect me to submit to your authority and assail me as you wish.

But I know these tracks
I am familiar with the route I'm taking and the path you'll follow.

Better than I know you ever could
I know this way better than you ever could, no matter how hard you try.

You're breathing down my neck
You are so close behind me that you're almost breathing down my neck.

But it will only make me win
This attempt of yours to overpower me will only result in me emerging victorious.

Nobody wanted this
Nobody ever expected or wished for this situation to occur.

Not after all these years
This has happened after a long time, which no one saw coming.

Still the darkness draws us deeper
Despite the situation being unexpected, it is getting worse with time.

In just like a trap
Like a trap, the situation is making us stuck and helpless.

But now I've got you here
I have finally caught you, and you are here with me.

I'll never lead you back
I won't take you back to where you initially started, as that's not my intention.

For the garden's end
The end of the garden represents the beginning of the wilderness beyond it.

Is where wilderness begins
Wilderness starts right after the garden ends, which means unpredictability and the unknown.

You dug a hole for me
You created a problem for me in the first place.

That I'll bury you in
Now that I've solved my problem, I will deal with you and make you pay for your actions.

And if you raise the dead now
If you try to resurface the past, bring up old matters again, or try to resurrect a disagreement, issue, or action, when it is no longer relevant or helpful.

I might lead you back
I may consider the issue and take you back to it if it's still relevant or beneficial.

And if you cut your hair
If you change yourself drastically or try to obscure your identity or past actions.

I might leave a map
I may help you if you make a complete change if it would benefit both of us.

You say you'll have the last laugh
You believe that you will emerge as the winner in the end, and you'll have the final say.

But the winters coming
Difficult times are approaching, and things will not be right in the future.

And the snow will cover tracks
It will be challenging to trace where things are going wrong, and there will be no going back.

And I'll be watching
I'll stay alert and pay attention to what's going on so that I can act accordingly.

Because I'm hunting you
I am ever ready to catch you if you try hiding or running from me.

Nobody's buying it
No one is accepting your lies, excuses, or justifications anymore.

Not after all these years
All this time, you've been misleading people with excuses and lies, but no longer now.

But somebody's noticed you
Someone has finally caught on to your actions and is aware of what you've been doing.

And now I'm on to you
I have finally learned what you've been doing, and I will catch you.
