[Verse 1]

Fallen sky, into the backyard

I can’t quite hear what Jenny said

Broken bottles on the staircase

It’s the kind of hot day when someone’s dead

Open the cage if I’m not dreaming

I'll ask Jenny what she said when see-through flowers stop their screaming


[Chorus]

All of the flowers won’t stop screaming

"Please don’t take my mom away"

And the moon said he won’t stop dreaming

'Till he sees another day


[Verse 2]

Fallen sky, into the backyard

I can’t quite hear what Jenny said

She slips in the bathtub whеn nobody noticed

She threw away hеr color TV

Poppie’s laughing 'cuz no ones talking

I know she’d rather walk up the street

And in the darkness, she lights up the asphalt

And hopes to put the bugs to sleep


[Chorus]

All of the flowers won’t stop screaming

"Please don’t take my mom away"

And the moon said he won’t stop dreaming

'Till he sees another day


[Verse 3]

The blink of an eyeball, the needle that stuck her

She knows she’ll put them all to shame

And that’s why, when Jenny asks her

A full bottle always makes her weep


[Chorus]

All of the flowers won’t stop screaming

"Please don’t take my mom away"

And the moon said he won’t stop dreaming

'Till he sees another day
