Skulls and Flowers Songtext
von Driveways

I dreamt that I′m bleeding out again
I don't care I′m dying
You said I'll leave you in the end
I won't dare and try
I feel something creeping in again
Skeletons are writhing
Beneath the surface where you buried me
I′ll never see your light

But spare my eyes, it′s a cursed sight
I don't want to look into it
Its secrets took me to the grave
But I can′t lie, I'm the worst kind
I′m blind to blatant deception
And deceitful looks upon your face


I wish I could tell you I left some flowers on your grave
I was disgusted and devastated at the same time
Felt compelled to relive encounters I disdain
But I've been conflicted on how to justify the pain
I′m still sleeping terrible
I feel these skeletons pull me down

I dreamt of a flight inside a storm
I have fears of flying
I've seen these lightning strikes before
In the clearest sky
I wish I could say I witnessed more than eerie disquiet
The sound of turbulence reverberates
A voice I know too well

But clear your mind of those forced ties
There's no deeper explanation
No hidden connotations now
But I can′t lie, I′ve ignored signs
Blissfully unaware, in disbelief and doubt

I wish I could tell you I left some flowers on your grave
I was disgusted and devastated at the same time
Felt compelled to relive encounters I disdain
But I've been conflicted on how to justify the pain
I′m still sleeping terrible
I feel these skeletons pull me down


I let this get inside my head sometimes
Burdens I can't bear to shoulder
Epilogues I′ve yet to write
Never could compare to closure

I wish I could tell you I left some flowers on your grave
I was disgusted and devastated at the same time
Felt compelled to relive encounters I disdain
But I've been conflicted on how to justify the pain
I′m still sleeping terrible
I feel these skeletons pull me down

I'll never let it go
I let these skeletons pull me down
