In lieu of flowers we grow death as a peace of mind
I hold these dreams on my own
Let it run away, the serpent's on my fucking back
Spit the venom into my heart to bring the doom back
At curtain call tonight I search for the exit light
Like night after night, oh will we ever survive
The fucked up fire in me needs you, the light in me
The valentine in me wants you to reign with me
That little bite on me wants you so dire with..
IN LIEU OF FLOWERS I CAN SEND MYSELF
WITH THE BLOOM OF THE FLOWERS YOU CAN SEND ME AWAY
AS ABOVE, SO BELOW
DEVOTION AND HOPE KEEP ME CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
Was it triggered right along when we were young?
I refused to see but the light of the sun
Might've pulled a card from a pack that's full of broken hearts
Might've tried too hard - no
Did I ever let you know?
This fucked up mind in me needs your sunlight within
IN LIEU OF FLOWERS I CAN SEND MYSELF
WITH THE BLOOM OF THE FLOWERS YOU CAN SEND ME AWAY
AS ABOVE, SO BELOW
DEVOTION AND HOPE KEEP ME CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
IN LIEU OF FLOWERS I CAN SEND MYSELF
WITH THE BLOOM OF THE FLOWERS YOU CAN SEND ME AWAY
AS ABOVE, SO BELOW
NEVER LET GO 'CUZ YOUR WORLD HOLDS THE BLOOM OF ME
Love as the death of me
Love has the death of me on hold
And in lieu of these flowers
If I.. if I just let you go
I CAN SEND MYSELF
WITH THE BLOOM OF THE FLOWERS YOU CAN SEND ME AWAY
AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, DEVOTION AND HOPE
KEEP ME CRAWLING BACK TO YOU
IN LIEU OF FLOWERS I CAN SEND MYSELF
WITH THE BLOOM OF THE FLOWERS YOU CAN SEND ME AWAY
AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, NEVER LET GO
'CUZ YOUR WORLD HOLDS THE BLOOM OF ME
