Silk Flowers

from The Late Bloomer by Crushdepth

/

lyrics

It's wrong to plant silk flowers and expect them to grow
But they can make the winter nights bright
Locked inside for what felt like a year
With silk flowers as the only source of light

Your trip isn't complete until you've visited Rapunzel
Till you've circled every hallway
And left your home for once, oh well
Your trip isn't complete and maybe never started
Unless you go in heavy headed
And walk away light hearted

It's wrong to plant silk flowers and expect them to grow
But they can make the winter nights bright
Locked inside for what felt like a year
With silk flowers as the only source of light

Who was I to say it was an inauspicious moment
Time is not for sale
And nobody can own it
Who was I to say something real wasn't calling,
On the easy bus ride home
As the frozen rain was falling

It's wrong to plant silk flowers and expect them to grow
But they can make the winter nights bright
Locked inside for what felt like a year
With silk flowers as the only source of light

It's wrong to plant silk flowers and expect them to grow

Locked inside for what felt like a year
With silk flowers as the only source of light
Silk flowers were the only source of light
