Marigold

Latched to this life like a death-grip We're satisfied with the mundane and keeping out of sight But still we are young I'll stare the angels down keep them in the back room Shut the door and let go Now we stare at the grave cold and paralyzed Pushing daisies while we still feel the sunshine We are young Slip through the marigolds and please our damaged souls This place is holding me Jump through the rope, let's make it credible When blood is all we see, life is impossible Death is coming 'round like a hurricane swirling We're on the clock and the needle is turning The misery is killing me slowly Give me a spine to work it out You're just another one wandering aimlessly until the grave The signs of the times are upon us all We're bleeding for tomorrow Sucking on the mother's dead tit of sorrow It's alright, we'll learn it all before we go Snapped by the neck as we follow Chin up, now tighten the rope Leave it all hollow This place is holding me Jump through the rope, let's make it credible When blood is all we see, life is impossible Death is coming 'round like a hurricane swirling We're on the clock and the needle is turning fast The misery is killing me slowly Give me a spine to work it out No funeral No pyre left burning This body is dust in the wind that's hurling past The misery is killing me slowly Give me a spine to work it out This place is holding me Jump through the rope, let's make it credible When blood is all we see, life is impossible Death is coming 'round like a hurricane swirling We're on the clock and the needle is turning fast The misery is killing me slowly Give me a spine to work it out No funeral No pyre left burning This body is dust in the wind that's hurling past The misery is killing me slowly Give me a spine to work it out
