[Verse 1]

Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming

Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights

Oh, how I long for the deep sleep dreaming

The goddess of imaginary light


[Chorus 1]

In my field of paper flowers

And candy clouds of lullabies (Flowers)

I lie inside myself for hours

And watch my purple sky fly over me (Flowers)


[Verse 2]

I linger in the doorway

Of alarm clocks screaming, monsters calling my name

Let me stay

Where the wind will whisper to me

Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story


[Chorus 2]

If you need to leave the world you live in

Lay your head down and stay a while (Flowers)

Though you may not remember dreaming

Something waits for you to breathe again (Flowers)
