Lyrics Flowers - Wallace , Big Fat Meanies

There was a girl I knew before
From a glass house with a steel door and writing on the walls
Flowers came out of her mouth whenever she spoke
But then she choked on all the vines as they closed up her throat
It's no surprise she ended up this way
A grain of salt in everything she says

And when she stood on her two feet
It became apparent they'd grown weak from laying on the floor
Marlboro in hand again just like a true American
With smoke and mirrors in her head from her television
It's no surprise she ended up this way
A grain of salt in everything she says

I don't know why she swam into the sea
She won't get far with shoes made of concrete

I waited for her by the sea
In the hopes that she'd return to me with flowers in her hair
But all that concrete on her feet it pulled her right down to the deep
To where the light never shines, along with all these friends of mine
Surprised she ended up this way
A grain of salt in everything she says

I don't know why she swam into the sea
She won't get far with shoes made of concrete
I don't know why the flowers filled her teeth
It's no surprise she's drowning in the sea
