Flowers Drink Upon The Ground Lyrics - Ben Christophers

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
