Black Flowers

Sometimes my heart stops

And I can't see you through the teardrops

You hold me like a sister holds a brother

Just a little sad that we feel that way

Somewhere under your skin

Someplace no one can break in

Somewhere I just can't get to

Something that is just for you

We're black flowers, you and me

We never grew up, successfully

Felt like we hung out all day in a noose

Waiting for some dream to cut us loose

Somewhere under your skin

Someplace no one can break in

Somewhere I just can't get to

Something that is just for you

Somewhere dark inside my heart

Someplace no one put a light

Somewhere you could start a fire

Have sunshine through the night
