Flowers
Heart And Ocean Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How many words will it take
To show you this distant place
My head will sit in pain
My chest will explode forth bouquets
My tongue a sharpened blade
My body out here on display
Rosebush limbs
Barbed wire skin
Weeping Willow hair
How long have you been down here?
How long have you been digging
These graves?
Weeping Willow chest
How long will you feign deep rest?
Can this one grave really hold
Both out bodies?
How many words can this head carry
Before it is a dictionary
You play my heart just a harp
Sorry if my strings are too sharp
This uncomfortable caprizant
This unyielding aeipathyn
These uneven palms will tremefy
This uneven fear is visotactile
Weeping Willow hair
How far can those planets stare?
How cold is the dirt
You keep digging?
Weeping willow chest
Can we hold on to what's left?




Can we lay in this grave
These time machines above.

Line by Line Meaning

Baby light up the room
Illuminate the space with your radiance


I'll be outside with flowers and booze
I'll await you outdoors with a gift of flowers and alcohol


I was up late night dancing with you
I stayed awake into the night dancing with you


We were up late right under the moon
The two of us enjoyed the night hours under the moon's light


Baby crack out the balloons
Bring out the balloons for more celebration


Almost high tide so take off your shoes
The water level is rising, let's remove our shoes to avoid getting them wet


I was up late night enjoying the view
In the wee hours of the night I was appreciating the picturesque scenery


We were up late right under the moon
Our activities continued late into the night, illuminated by the moon


Flowers and booze
A combination of gifts, one to enhance the atmosphere and the other for pleasure


Under the moon
All of these activities taking place in view of the moon's light
