petals

Tragic promise

Said they'll stay then went away

I want to have a vacant mind

And leave this all behind

Begging for love

Deceptive friends meet tristful ends

If only I was still young

I'd be loved

But they never really stay

So I'm in this barren place

Writing elegies

Elegies

Oh-oh

All these petals

Falling to the ground

I fear it's fatal

It's all coming down

And every petal

Wilting in the wind oh

She was something fabled

'Til she reached the end

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Such a great shame

Someone's better at your age

You paint me pallid in the head

I can't do this again

I've got nothing

Always been the one to give

If only I was still young

I'd be loved

But they never really stay

It has always been this way

How ineffable

To be loved

Oh-oh

All these petals

Falling to the ground

I fear it's fatal

It's all coming down

And every petal

Wilting in the wind oh

She was something fabled

'Til she reached the end

Pick me apart

Evanescent ecstasy

Forlorn flowers will get lost

Like a fading melody and

They're always late

Show up when you're alamort

It's a chronic headache

20 heartbreaks

Time to go-oh-oh

All these petals

Falling to the ground

I fear it's fatal

It's all coming down

And every petal

Wilting in the wind oh

She was something fabled

'Til she reached the end

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
