Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
All the darling buds of may
They fall with no sound
They carry you down
They carry you down
All the lilies bloomed and blossomed
Wilted and they’re shivering
I can’t stop their withering
Oh, this world is a war
She’s the angel on top of the tree
Sugarheart, here she comes
She’s going to fall on me
Innocence was our fire
We told the truth
I miss the sweet boys
In the summer of their youth
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
They will make you so
So cynical
The fire burns, the flesh destorys
The past that made us old
She’s the grace of this world
She’s too pure
For the likes of this world
This world is a whore
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
I wait till mine and
Hey, it’s all mine
Hey, it’s all mine
Never knew what i could be
All the darling buds of may
They fall with no sound
They carry you down
They carry you down
Ooooooooo, ooooooh
Ooooooooo
All the lillies bloomed and blossomed
Wilted and they’re shivering
I can’t stop their withering,
Oh, this world is a war
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
Tear the petals off of you
Make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
I’ve often wondered if there’s
Ever been a perfect family
I’ve always longed for undividedness
And sought stability
A flower taught me how to pray
But as I grew, that flower changed
She started failing in the wind
Like golden petals scattering
And I miss you dandelion
And even love you
And I wish there was a way
For me to trust you
But it hurts me every time
I try to touch you
But I miss you dandelion
And even love you
I gravitated towards a patriarch
So young predictably
I was resigned to spend my life
With a maze of misery
A boy and a girl befriended me
We’re bonded through despondency
I stayed so long but finally
I fled to save my sanity
And I miss you little sis and
Little brother
And I hope you realize
I’ll always love you
(Always love you)
And although you’re struggling
You will recover
(We’re gonna make it maybe)
And I miss you little sis and
Little brother
So many I considered
Closest to me
Turned on a dime and sold me
Out dutifully
Although that knife was chipping
Away at me
They turned their eyes away and
Went home to sleep
(Sleep)
(Sleep)
(Sleep)
And I missed a lot of life
But I’ll recover
Though I know you really like
To see me suffer
Still I wish that you and I’d
Forgive each other
‘Cause I miss you, Valentine
And really loved you
I really loved you
(I guess I loved you)
I tried so hard
But you drove me away
To preserve my sanity
And I found the strength to break away
(Do do do do do)
(Do do do do do do do do)
Fly
