Flowers grow black atop my pale skin
They do so menacingly, to a poison they are akin
On this foliage there are no thorns
Because all the pain comes with the adorn
I reach out to the blue overhead
And to the Heavens I call for salvation to be shed
But from there I just see the twinkle in the sky
That promises it is alright to die
Flowers grow black atop my pale skin
They do so menacingly, almost with a grin
On this foliage there are no thorns
It is merely of non-existence that they forewarn
I look to the rivers beneath the ground
Where the power of creation stirs without a sound
To it I ask for my life to be returned
But the platinum flows unconcerned
Ebony flowers grow atop my dying skin
No relief heard for one who bears my sin
At the full blossom there strike through the thorns
And as I disappear not a soul remembers to mourn
