Flowers Songtext
von IRST

Above the garden we once grew from
My roots, still twitching deep beneath the dirt
You tore the petals from my mind
And watched them wilt right in front of your eyes
Fall into my chest
Let it break
I′ll be your soil
I'll be the one that stays
How many times must I swallow the dirt
Your flame cauterized my heart
But it never intended to keep me warm
I watered every wound you left behind
Praying that someday they′ll turn into something kind
But nothing ever grew, just thorn and bone
And now I bleed from seeds that I've sown
Wrap your hands around me Feel the shape of all I couldn't say
Every part of me was begging for you to stay
Flowers bloomed inside my rib cage
But you just stood there and watched them decay
So throw yourself into the middle of my arms
So that I can be the soil, whenever you′re ready
Let your ghosts rest in my chest
Until their thorns replace every single part of me
Flowers bloom inside of my rib cage
But decay is already digging in
It′s too late
I'm too late
And when the last petal drops
The flowers won′t remember
That I ever opened up
