Johnny Manchild and the Poor Bastards - We Did Not Ask for This Room

Marigold

You walked in lines a hundred fucking times
In my mind, the night she left me for the light
And we all, and we all feel heavier now

She came and she went too fast for a breath
And we blamed, we wept, we counted our steps
And we all, and we all, we carry it now
Vitriol, vitriol, we tear ourselves down

Marigold, marigold by her side
Marigold, marigold, wilted, lost in time

We read the same precarious words
And we lacked the faith in all that we heard
And we all, and we all, still want to believe

The days, they pass so quickly it seems
And our words, our past seems only a dream
And we all, and we all, we live in it now
And we all, and we all sleep heavier now

Marigold, marigold by her side
Marigold, marigold, wilted, lost in-

We all loved you so, we carry you in our words
We speak with a grace, you gave unto the world
We find your face in moments flashing by
We all wish to speak to hear you one more time

We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)
We all wave high (we all wave high)

Marigold, marigold by her side
Marigold, marigold, wilted, lost in time
