Remember when they used to make us |
|
Wake up and spray all the blood from the flowers? |
|
It was so hot in the afternoon |
|
They told us that we couldn't stop until the garden bloomed |
|
When we were finished, we heard the sirens scream |
|
I shook your back and woke you up from someone else's dream |
|
You were so lost underneath the weight |
|
You turned into the type of person that you used to hate |
|
Are you still mine? |
|
I hope you feel better this time |
|
The gentle preservation of children's minds |
|
Remember when we danced with your mother? |
|
She was so drunk in the living room |
|
And then her profile, turned a certain way |
|
Showed me how you would look thirty years from today |
|
So come and talk to me in your language |
|
With your glass eye and your wooden teeth |
|
I think I know what's wrong, I think I know what you're on |
|
I think I know what they meant when they said you were gone |
|
Are you still mine? |
|
I hope you feel better this time |
|
The gentle preservation of children's minds |
