"Where The Flowers Die" lyrics
Bleed it out
I left the porch light burning
For a ghost that won't come home
Your picture keeps on turning
Every room into a tomb
I hear your voice in the static
Like a prayer beneath the noise
I became so good at dying
I forgot I had a choice
And if heaven has a doorway
I hope you left it open wide
'Cause I've been sleeping with the shadows
Just to feel you by my side
So bury me where the flowers die
Where no one has to say goodbye
I'll carve your name into my bones
So even death won't leave me alone
If every beautiful thing must end
I'll haunt this world to find you again
If every beautiful thing must end
I'll haunt this world to find you again
And when there's nothing left of me
You'll be the last thing that I see
When there's nothing left of me
You'll be the last thing that I see
The mirror doesn't know me
There's a stranger in my skin
I've been counting every heartbeat
Like I'm waiting for the end
Your memory tastes like winter
Cold enough to make me numb
I keep talking to the darkness
Like someday you'll answer back
Maybe love is just a graveyard
Where we bury what we were
But I'd rather live beside your ghost
Than learn to live without her
So bury me where the flowers die
Where no one has to say goodbye
I'll carve your name into my bones
So even death won't leave me alone
I don't need saving...
I just need somewhere
To put all this love
Now that you're not here
If there's another life
Don't make me search too long
I'll know you by the silence
You'll know me by this song
So bury me where the flowers die
Where no one has to say goodbye
I'll carve your name into my bones
So even death won't leave me alone
And if every beautiful thing must end
Let me fall apart again
Because when there's nothing left of me
You'll still be the last thing I see
And if every beautiful thing must end
Let me fall apart again
Because when there's nothing left of me
You'll still be the last thing that I see
The flowers died but I kept your name
I left the porch light burning
For a ghost that won't come home
Your picture keeps on turning
Every room into a tomb
I hear your voice in the static
Like a prayer beneath the noise
I became so good at dying
I forgot I had a choice
And if heaven has a doorway
I hope you left it open wide
'Cause I've been sleeping with the shadows
Just to feel you by my side
So bury me where the flowers die
Where no one has to say goodbye
I'll carve your name into my bones
So even death won't leave me alone
If every beautiful thing must end
I'll haunt this world to find you again
If every beautiful thing must end
I'll haunt this world to find you again
And when there's nothing left of me
You'll be the last thing that I see
When there's nothing left of me
You'll be the last thing that I see
The mirror doesn't know me
There's a stranger in my skin
I've been counting every heartbeat
Like I'm waiting for the end
Your memory tastes like winter
Cold enough to make me numb
I keep talking to the darkness
Like someday you'll answer back
Maybe love is just a graveyard
Where we bury what we were
But I'd rather live beside your ghost
Than learn to live without her
So bury me where the flowers die
Where no one has to say goodbye
I'll carve your name into my bones
So even death won't leave me alone
I don't need saving...
I just need somewhere
To put all this love
Now that you're not here
If there's another life
Don't make me search too long
I'll know you by the silence
You'll know me by this song
So bury me where the flowers die
Where no one has to say goodbye
I'll carve your name into my bones
So even death won't leave me alone
And if every beautiful thing must end
Let me fall apart again
Because when there's nothing left of me
You'll still be the last thing I see
And if every beautiful thing must end
Let me fall apart again
Because when there's nothing left of me
You'll still be the last thing that I see
The flowers died but I kept your name
