lyrics

Flowers (S. Sinner)
All the Flowers have died and I keep your rings in a box to hide away
Like the goodbyes & all the other details slip every day
Still nothing set in stone, half of us alone, the other feel that way
Receipts saved or burned, we can not return our yesterdays
All the nights that I tried to reconstruct what wrongs led me astray
The devlish little thoughts that upon me now are so easy to file away
Still nothing set in stone, half of us alone, the other feel that way
Receipts saved or burned, we can not return our yesterdays
The history of me thru my backward looking view appears to me
As a parable of you as the photographs they too keep burning me
The word that seems so cold you know you shouldn’t hold them by the tail that way
They can reach around and bite, and when it comes to light best have your box tops saved

They got it all so when these boys are randy to rock, you better let 'em. ... more
