Other Men’s Flowers Songtext
von Halloweens

You′re movin' out in the mornin′
And you'll be gone when I'm done tourin′
You′ll be gone, you'll be gone

You′ll be impossible to fill in
My little lion cub, my kitten
You're movin′ on, you're movin′ on

Out of the symmetry of memories
Where bodyguards of truth surround me
Where you belong, will you be long?

I'm done hidin'
So I′m fightin′

Can't stay here alone, this ain′t no home if it's not ours
Sleepin′ in the sheets I've ripped from other men′s flowers
Drivin' you away, I've only got myself to blame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame

I think the bed′s become an ocean
The sea of change is in slow motion
So I rise, onto your side


It′s where I'll dream you never left me
Forever echoin′ in reverie
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

And your horizon begs for stories
About the Grecians, about Rory
But there are none, so I reply

Can't stay here alone, this ain′t no home if it's not ours
Sleepin′ in the sheets I've ripped from other men's flowers
Drivin′ you away, I′ve only got myself to blame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame

Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame

If this is it, then why go gently?
Fire 40 rounds until you're empty
Into the rose, into the crown

And when the past is back in boxes
And all our birthday cards are corpses
That′s how it goes, no turnin' round
Nope

Can′t stay here alone, this ain't no home if it′s not ours
Sleepin' in the sheets I've ripped from other men′s flowers
Drivin′ you away, I've only got myself to blame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame


You′re movin' out, movin′ on, you're movin′ out, movin' out, movin' on
You′re movin′ out, movin' on, you′re movin' out, movin′ out, movin' on
You′re movin' out, movin' on, you′re movin′ out, movin' out, movin′ on
You're movin′ out, movin' on, you′re movin' out, movin' out, movin′ on
