Dead Flowers lyrics

In this life we're tested and tainted And only some make it through But we see hope in this garden of eden And I'll never give it up, no! Sweet renee she was destined for me We had a road to drive on But I let her sway from the headlights And I had to give her up So I gave her Dead flowers And ran away Dead flowers They hit me in the wrong way Jack and Jill, they went climbing that mountain They went to hold hands But by the time they had got it together The view said to give it up Cos they saw Dead flowers And ran away Dead flowers They hit me in the wrong way They hit me in the wrong way Now all these failures mean something My lonely heart is a mess All these lows have hardened my soul But is there time for me yet? To trust my mother was taken For a cause so bright and true Will you give me some time to mourn With an angel like you? All I want in my resting place Let my roots unfurl Well all at once I knew that I had All at once I knew that I had hope I'll never give up, I'll never give it up!
