Flowers
I feel the pain here again
I who swore to be free and beyond yesterday
I who believed myself far from you, with nothing more to say
Look at me here singing old stories
It turns out that yesterday
I remembered the gifts you used to give
One for each forced caress
Every step you took discreetly towards the door
And so, just before sleeping
The memories of those nights came back
When you
Brought flowers and filled the house
To cover up that you didn't really love me
It was all an attempt to give breath
To an illusion that was already dying
And you, brought flowers and turned your face
To avoid me guessing one day
Your secret plans to go with the wind
And finally free yourself from this torment
Uh-uh, uh-uh-uh, white flowers
Uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
I returned to the pain again
I fell back into free fall like the cruelest vice
I returned out of habit, perhaps
I won't deny that I got attached to this sorrow
Oh, you'll see, it's hard for me to give up
The verses that were born from those nights
When you
Brought flowers and filled the house
To cover up that you didn't really love me
It was all an attempt to give breath
To an illusion that was already dying
And you, brought flowers and turned your face
To avoid me guessing one day
Your secret plans to go with the wind
And finally free yourself from this torment
I never wanted anything
Just pure love
A kiss in the morning
And that was enough
That's what I needed
The rest didn't matter
Heart
And instead, instead you
Brought flowers and filled the house
To cover up that you didn't really love me
It was all an attempt to give breath
To an illusion that was already dying
And you, brought flowers and turned your face
To avoid me guessing one day
Your secret plans to go with the wind
And finally free yourself from this torment
