Flowers


To all the flowers
Drowning in the night
Falling, sinking
Far beyond the depths tonight


Until the morning
Takes us by its side
We are nowhere
We look for a way to find

Reaching highs
Blinding skies
Reaching highs
Blinding lights

All the flowers
We took without a care
Broken things
We thought would fall back in place


Until the moment
Takes us by its side
Who can blame us
We look for a way to find

Reaching highs
Blinding skies
Reaching highs
Blinding lights


Once again we find ourselves

Here on
No man's ground
Where no truth can be found
Here on
No man's ground
Flying signals high above the clouds

Here on
No man's ground
Maybe this time there's no way out
Here on
No man's ground
Left like the flowers we once hide


Washed away
Left today

(Like the flowers we once were) 



Flowers was written in April and May 2021. It uses many of the same chords than the live version of Porcupine Tree's song Trains, which is one of my favorite songs and which I listened to a lot when making this song. 

The video is made by Reel Clef Studios. I came across it by chance and it seemed to fit the song perfectly.
