In Bloom
by Jon Foreman, Joy Oladokun

Album: 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
Let the pain be for a reason
There'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
