Ben Christophers Flowers Drink Upon The Ground Lyrics

Flowers Drink Upon The Ground Lyrics

Flowers drink upon the ground 



In the story of nature 



Queer as folk they think there's gold 



In those rugged streams 



But it's been dry for years 







And they sway like empty clothes 



In soulless avenues 



And they wind on like the roads 



Until the rains became their eyes 







The boy who belonged to no one else but himself 



And those darling beasts became your friend 



So bless the girl who took me away 



It's those diamond eyes 



It's all I could take 







She smokes a smile like nothing I've seen 



Makes the wind wind over all the dark days 



Blow down the secret ship of despair 



For all to find a place to believe in 



Everyone's missing someone 



Everyone's missing something 







And still I don't know why a bee stings and dies 



And yet it's wasps I hate 



Why does money matter so 



And people look for ufo's 







The books are dying from disbelief 



They are the poses at the road side 



Love is sabotage you tasted blood 



You had it coming for years 



And years 







And you sway like empty clothes 



In soulless avenues 



And it winds on like the roads 



Until the rains become their eyes 



For all of time 







Lord I've been foolish forgive me 



Lord I fucked up forgive me 



Forgive me 



Lord I've been foolish forgive me
