Pulling out these lifeless flowers Holding on 'cuz I can't let go Thorns in the stem are thorns in my side Push them farther in to be closer again Thorns in the stem are thorns in my side In places where they pierce will make us feel so alive Bury that flower back inside the dirt Cover it back up so we don't care that it hurts Pulling, pushing, digging, deeper! Cover, conceal push it deeper This is how it feels to bury you Let it decay if it's going to Let it decay, let it bury me Pressure compounds, builds and sunders us Thorns in the stem are thorns in my side In places where they pierce will make us feel so alive Bury that flower back inside the dirt Cover it back up so we don't care that it hurts Pushing up from the bottom Discovering how it feels to live Giving rise to a new beginning Placing our bones back above the stone Grasping for familiar roots Blood feels heavy, invasion of earth Clogged pores and impacted airways Weight in pockets, weight on my thoughts Pulling, pushing, digging, deeper! Cover, conceal push it deeper This is how it feels to bury you Let it decay if it's going to Let it decay, let it bury me Pressure compounds, builds and sunders us I can feel myself descending Let the worms inside deface Hold the roots there right above Make it stone inside these organs and behind These eyes, they don't want to watch us die They don't want to watch us die Make it stone inside these organs This is how it feels to die again Bring me back from under your feet Take these flowers, I will make it Stone inside these organs and eyes They don't want to watch us die They don't want to watch us die
