Every Flower She Holds. (Song Lyric)

every flowerWith the thunder of a demi god,
she announced her arrival.
As I lay by her side
I should’ve prayed for my survival.
Locked in her arms I couldn’t resist
the power and the glory of that girl’s kiss.
she drew me in with her innocent eyes
tore my spirit with a smile that hid her lies.

Her bewitching smile shines out from
the blackest soul in the universe.
She took me up so high, I grazed the sky
then left me lying low in the cold & dirt.
She led me away from yesterday’s
blindfold games I used to play,
she took me to the edge of the cliffs
then laughed as I grasped onto the precipice.

Every step she takes she cracks the earth apart.
Every guy she dates finds a stone in place of a heart.
Men just worship the ground on which she stands,
every time she smiles, another poor soul is damned,
and every flower she holds just withers and dies in her hand.

Lookin at the world through
a wide angle camera lens.
Try to fix on a movin’ target
have to pick the strangers from my friends.
Wanna find somebody who’ll believe
the dark desires her beauty needs,
I try hard to satisfy her greed but
she’s only happy to watch my secrets bleed.

Every step she takes she cracks the earth apart etc

oooh the flower, oooh the cliffs,
oooh the thunder, oooh the kiss…

Every step she takes she cracks the earth apart etc
