Текст WHY? – One Rose

A man should die gaunt
And not bloated and overdone
There should be new words hidden
In the shadows on his face

We’re being dumped into order out of buckets of sea salt
What was the first condiment?

But always one rose grows though a littered lot of gravel
Or we’re struck dumb and doomed when it doesn’t

Flowers are how plants laugh
And not by joke or to ridicule
I never saw my parents
Try to make a thing like me

In time in the bathroom mirror
I learn to accept my body

I got jumped into living by a coven of midwives
Under a dracula-caped eclipse
Like cutting through watermelon meat with a wire
You shoot sick from the hip and never miss

All the things inside me I assume
Are doing what they need to be doing

And always one rose grows though a littered lot of gravel
Or we’re struck dumb and doomed when it doesn’t
Always one rose grows though a littered lot of gravel
Or we’re struck dumb and doomed when it doesn’t

Looks like a sky for shoeing horses under
Looks like a sky for shoeing horses under
Looks like a sky for shoeing horses under
Looks like a sky for something
