Lyrics
I never said I’d never try.
But I’m screaming and dreaming and drowning in your green pool when you cry.
This mirror makes it all seem small.
If we make it back alive, can you make the call?
Right or wrong.
Illuminated illness, brighter now.
Cure me with carbon monoxide, and close my eyes.
Oh, holier than thou.
Clearer in my mind than ever.
I never. I never.
If these lights don’t shine any brighter than that night.
If you’re bent on bouncing bright off of these walls.
When you just can’t seem to shake
that there’s nobody awake at all…
Wither away my beaten and bruised bouquet.
You reap what you sow. All the seeds always stolen away.
And ever leave me high and dry
for pleasure. Your leisure.
If these lights don’t shine any brighter than that night.
If you’re bent on bouncing bright off of these walls.
When you just can’t seem to shake
that there’s nobody awake at all-
“Let the flowers fall!”
I never said I’d never try.
But I’m dreaming, just dreaming.
And ever leave me high and dry.
I see the lost dog look in your eyes.
