Marigold Lyrics - Headstones

So much depends on first loves and friends 

legs for a table 

and i painted my room 

with judgments and doom 

but i still ain't able to sleep 

got to sleep 

and dream up some dreams i can keep 

oh my, my marigold, marigold 

i was walking at dawn 

when something turned on 

but i couldn't name it 

so i, i went back home 

i did it alone 

but i couldn't claim it 

i tried, yes i tried 

i tried honey i was denied 

oh my, my marigold, marigold

well everything becomes much more meaningless 

as time passes by 

so i hide in the bedorom with strong curtains drawn 

so i can't look the world in the eye 

i heard you were well 

i heard that you fell 

back on your feet 

well me, i'm still in fear 

i planted her here 

right in the street 

to sleep, so she sleeps 

and dreams with the orphans and freaks 

oh my, my marigold, marigold 

Photos 

now talk, talk it is cheap 

i talk in my sleep 

i know what to say 

i said, i said you were wise 

to let go of my eyes 

and push me away 

and run, yes you run 

you run honey nothing gets done 

oh my, my marigold, marigold 

but all that i've learned it must be a chemical change 

after all i'm no different from the next twisted talker who's taking his lies to the grave 

i wasn't myself 

i was nobody else 

that i couldn't be 

like you were nobody too 

to somebody who's exactly like me 

so sleep, let her sleep 

and dream up the dreams we can keep 

oh my, my marigold, marigold
