Standing on the grass, inhaling every breeze I swear to God I'll only pass with the freeze You are the poison seeping in my brain Only poisonous 'cause I made you that way Failing hard and falling from the dream There was a ring of fire, now it's just a ring of steam You are the lilacs and I'm the broken vase I will hold you and keep you, no matter what it takes But sometimes the clay goes in too dry And sometimes flowers die Some day I might try to patch me up in time And go to find you growing wild But sometimes the clay goes in to dry And sometimes flowers die Some day I might try to patch me up in time And go to find you growing in the wild Though the sun, it stings so much And I'm still doing anything I can to touch The warmest petal, the harshest phrase The single ounce of love we made But now I'm all alone and falling from the trees There was a ring of fire, now it's just a ring of steam You are the lilacs, and I'm the broken vase I will hold you and keep you, no matter what it takes But sometimes the clay goes in too dry And sometimes flowers die Some day I might try to patch me up in time And go to find you growing wild But sometimes the clay goes in to dry And sometimes flowers die Some day I might try to patch me up in time And go to find you growing in the wild
