Petals

She's the angel on top of the tree
 Sugar heart, here she comes
 She's goin' to fall on me
 Innocence was our fire
 We told the truth
 I miss the sweet boys in the summer of their youth
 Tear the petals off of you
 Make you tell the truth

 They will make you so
 So cynical
 The fire burns the flesh, destroy the past that made us old
 She's the grace of this world
 She's too pure
 For the likes of this world, this world is a whore
 Tear the petals off of you
 Make you tell the truth
 Tear the petals off of you (you)
 (La, la, la, la)
 Tear the petals off of you
 Make you tell the truth
 Tear the petals off of you
 I wait 'til mine and
 Hey, it's all mine
 Hey, it's all mine
 Never knew what I could be
 All the darling buds of May, they fall with no sound
 They carry you down, they carry you down
 (Ooh, ooh)
 (Ooh, ooh)
 All the lilies bloomed and blossomed
 Wilted and they're shivering
 I can't stop their withering, oh, this world is at war
