Chris Cornell
Flower (Live from the Artists Den)
[Intro]
Thank you very much
This is a song that goes all the way back to our SST Record
This is called "Flower" on a album called Ultramega Ok
[Chorus]
Along her vain parade
Along her veins
[Verse]
All of seventeen
Eyes a purple green
Treated like a queen
She was on borrowed self-esteem
She would do her dance
A painful masquerade
Spinning you into her web
Along her vain parade
In her uniform
Studded brass and steel
Kissing napkin lipstick stains
And smearing sincerity
[Chorus]
Along her veins
All along her veins
[Verse]
Time crept up on her
She's an early gray
Her reflection looks concerned
And flowers hit her grave
[Outro]
Thank you
