The flower frozen in moonlight
Preserved in splendor for everyone to see
Would sparkle and gleam
And yet even so
It shattered like glass into the snow

It bloomed in the window
And crumbled under the weight it came to bear
For all that was there
It seemed there was nothing left inside

I followed you where you would take me
I gave you everything I thought I had to give
But even you know
There's nowhere to go

In a dream I saw an image of your eyes
Cutting through my thoughts I'd bundled up in lies
If you took my words and threw them all aside
All the mud would be within

There are no more chances lying where I lay
So destroy me, tear my shattered heart away
If there's something left that ever could be saved
Bring it all to a place where it can end

(Take my sins and carve them all away)
(Consume it all and crush it deep into the sand)

I gave you everything you wanted
I told you all the things I thought you had to hear
The empty refrains
Were all but the same

As you stand there in the shadows and the light
With the tinge of fragrant lilies in the night
Only you could make this withered soul of mine
Like it never had been there

Could you find me, save me, all the things you can
With your eyes that only see me as I am
All my thorn-soaked answers bundled in your hands
Tear them all out with nothing left to spare

In a dream I saw an image of your eyes
With the tinge of fragrant lilies in the night
