Paroles de Magnolia
I sat and reflected onThe only photo at your funeral
On the easel
In the shadow of the willowed Sacred Heart
Where we started wanting, weeding
Southern autumn
Places of your life overgrown
Warm winds blow
Secrets we die with
Trembling weakness is what haunts us now
Inside the windows
What once made us proud
I owned everything thought to be suicidal mania
I was everything taught to me
Drinking deeply
The truth of my grief
But what else could be?
Everything was written
I saw everybody plead
I owned everything thought to be suicidal mania
I was everything taught to me
Drinking deeply
The truth of my grief
I owned everything thought to be
I was everything taught to me
All the tapes and all of the letters
At Heaven's gate, standing with the guards
My love is endless
Everything of you is me
Every step is toward the grave
Could it be flesh and blood were all we gave?
Warm winds blow
Secrets we die with
Trembling weakness is what haunts us now
Inside the windows
What once made us proud
I owned everything thought to be suicidal mania
I was everything taught to me
Drinking deeply
The truth of my grief
But what else could be?
Everything was written
I saw everybody plead
I owned everything thought to be suicidal mania
I was everything taught to me
Drinking deeply
The truth of my grief
I owned everything thought to be
I was everything taught to me
All the tapes and all of the letters
At Heaven's gate, standing with the guards
My love is endless
Everything of you is me
Every step is toward the grave
Could it be flesh and blood were all we gave?
