Royal Flush

We've grown this bed of flowers
To lure in the sparrows (the doves stay to the ground)
Their feathers are yours to keep
Though they may fall for me alone

She gave you such good taste (good girl)
It won't rot like her
Beneath the velvet skin of neon light

Shimmer like you should (withering)
You're cursed, exhaling
As it fades
All your shine

And this dress is sewn of roses
And the sheers is sharp as thorns
Of filial foliage
Stems growing in lamеnt
(Seeds been laid like a wake)

She gavе you such good taste (good girl)
It won't rot like her
Beneath the velvet skin of neon light
(Plant a heart of color)
(And then burn this dance in sunlight)
(Eager as this blade is)
(To taste of dark red wine)

Shimmer like you should (withering)
You're cursed, exhaling
(As I long for the air of your home)
(It's not there)

I don't try, I don't try to pretend now
I don't try
I don't try, I don't try, I don't try to pretend now
I don't try

And though you may live
As a ghost on this floor (can you hear?)
The carpet is stained by the wine you once drank (do you see?)
As if you could taste from the fruit they have grown (you'll feel)
The embrace of the soil underneath (you once lived)
And now just as your photo, I breathe through the glass
Of my frame

If you left nobody to uncover
She must reclaim the ears I once stole

I don't believe you
How could I?
I don't believe you

She gave you such good taste (good, girl)
It won't rot like her
Beneath the velvet skin of neon light
(Plant a heart of color)
(And then burn this dance in sunlight)
(Eager as this blade is)
(To taste of dark red wine)

Shimmer like you should (withering)
You're cursed, exhaling
All of your shame!
