Lyrics

The blossoms have opened
And we transpire
Parting the pedals
With thick fingers
Rising like a swarm of
Insects from the garden
This is devastation in tune
Thousands of bodies with
One universal heat beating
Through the ribcage
These thorns will carve our
Eyes and these flowers will
Enshroud our souls
Fluttering wings were meant to fly
Whispering and conspiring of
Mental worlds and infinite flights
We part the water of distant seas
We bleed together
Stirring red into vast blue skies
A world of good intentions
Poisoned by your hidden desires
Peeling back the layers of flesh
That used to have meaning to us all
You closed your eyes
And kissed the flames
Floating into the sun with open arms
We watched you burn with hands tied
We salted the earth with our tears
And bathed the world
With our bleeding hearts
Sing your song for the last time
This chorus comes to silent under the
Weight that we've been left to bear
The smell of smoke still rises
From your blackened wings
Your broken body hits
The ground like and
Angel repelled from heaven
You crawl back to the flowers
From which you came
Sleeping beneath the ashes
Of everything you created
