the beginning is all flowers and magic love is like the water in the park your bones are paper your skin is black powder the tips of my fingers shoot sparks sometimes things are fragile and tragic and life is like a mobile home if passion is a gasoline I've got a heart of styrofoam I recall it was the dead of winter all the snow would make the heart grow cold if all your thoughts are just sidewalk salt then my mind's a garden slug crawling home well sometimes things get melodramatic and life is just a thing we crave but pumping inside your heart is a nuclear reactor inside mine a tsunami wave yeah, inside mine a tsunami wave we could have been something we could have worked it out and seen it all through no matter how close to something that you think that you are there's a distance you got to go, you can never break through and in the end is all hymns and flowers love is not a worthy epitaph my bones are powder skin boils in the fire and the tips of my fingers shoot laughs sometimes things are fragile and tragic and life is like a mobile home if passion is gasoline I've got a heart of styrofoam we could have been something we could have worked it out and seen it all through no matter how close to something that you think that you are there's a distance you got to go, that you got to break through

outloud 04:05
when I see you come over walking to me talking to me i mean when you come around you let the sadness fall let the sadness fall right now when I see your eyes and they're looking at me seeing me I mean when you look around you let the sadness fall let the sadness fall right now beat it, concede it, complete it, feel it, you blur it like a sad song beat it, concede it, complete it, feel it, burn it like a sad song why you want to look when there's nothing around why you want to touch when there's no one to be found why you want to play when your playing with me now why you want to laugh when there's no one around why you want to look if there's nothing that can be found makes it sound so funny when you say it out loud beat it, concede it, feel it, complete it blur it like a sad song beat it, concede it, feed it, feel it burn it like a sad song

burn it 02:23
we should burn all the flags not just one or two if we could burn all of the flags well thats what i would do seems like a simple way out for me and you if we could burn out all the flags that's what i would do if I could burn out all the flags it would make a lot a people mad but i want to burn out all the flags not just the ones that are bad see 'em wagging in the air just makes me sad if i could burn out all the flags it wouldn't be too bad they say symbols are just power power gives a symbol hope power of the people is the only answer not some rag on a rope leave a human race divided but it ain't no joke if you can find your power in an old piece of cloth maybe there ain't no hope
