Lyrics
When your dream flowers die, you wonder why
And when the black chairs fall, I know it’s true
Cuz your costume’s in your mind, turning blue
And as the season’s hypnotized, I stay on tune
And when the black chairs fall, I know it’s true
Cuz your costume’s in your mind, turning blue
And as the season’s hypnotized, I stay on tune
And when the locusts fill the sky, I break on through
And when the oceans are dry, I forget you
When the dream flowers die
I don’t want your love in vain
And when the oceans are dry, I forget you
When the dream flowers die
I don’t want your love in vain
When your dream flowers die
I don’t want to feel the same
And your black powder rain makes me cry
And your dark wooden hands don’t feel my pain
And your angel disguise’s wearing thin
And the lust between your thighs is damaging
And your dark wooden hands don’t feel my pain
And your angel disguise’s wearing thin
And the lust between your thighs is damaging
And your ruby lips won’t lie but love me true
When your dream flowers die
I don’t want your love in vain
When your dream flowers die
I don’t want to feel the same
Our dream flowers die
I don’t want to love in vain
When your dream flowers die
Our dream flowers die
I don’t want to love in vain
When your dream flowers die
I don’t want to feel the same
Notes
Elliott played drums and piano on this song. The song ends with audio from the reel of Elliott remarking that he was “sitting back too far,” presumably on the drum set.
