victory daffodil by Lady Queen Paradise

I am so scared of it, I do not know
If the flowers in trenches scream yes or no

I will promise my hand as it touches the dirt
I will follow my tears
Just to see what it’s worth

The white doves sing

Death comes around and I open my arms
One more victory daffodil runs through the yard

Petal by petal, my sorrow grows strong
I’m alive in the rise of the things that I’ve done

But the window is closing, it’s so strange to be
locked in with someone who knocks violently

I will bark at the sound of my violet skin
In the endlessness ocean, no light’s coming in
In the endlessness ocean, no light’s coming in
In the endlessness ocean, you’re looking at me
At the way I undress, I’m finally free

In the darkness of night, in the burnt forest air
I will go to the edge, I’ll see you there
Every cradle’s a burden, each bird, a bear

Warning, warning, mourning

Blood on the floor, such an imperfect world
Such a rush to possess what can never be yours

Dare I tear at the sand when a rose cannot bleed?
Do not promise your hand
Do not die for me

Oh, the white doves sing
