Ben Christophers - Flowers Drink Upon The Ground lyrics

rate me

Flowers drink upon the ground

In the story of nature

Queer as folk they think there's gold

In those rugged streams

But it's been dry for years

And they sway like empty clothes

In soulless avenues

And they wind on like the roads

Until the rains became their eyes

The boy who belonged to no one else but himself

And those darling beasts became your friend

So bless the girl who took me away

It's those diamond eyes

It's all I could take

She smokes a smile like nothing I've seen

Makes the wind wind over all the dark days

Blow down the secret ship of despair

For all to find a place to believe in

Everyone's missing someone

Everyone's missing something

And still I don't know why a bee stings and dies

And yet it's wasps I hate

Why does money matter so

And people look for ufo's

The books are dying from disbelief

They are the poses at the road side

Love is sabotage you tasted blood

You had it coming for years

And years

And you sway like empty clothes

In soulless avenues

And it winds on like the roads

Until the rains become their eyes

For all of time

Lord I've been foolish forgive me

Lord I fucked up forgive me

Forgive me

Lord I've been foolish forgive me
