The Flowers
Lyrics 
The flowers you gave me are rotting
And still I refuse to throw them away
Some of the bulbs never opened quite fully
They might, so I'm waiting and staying awake

Some of the bulbs never opened quite fully
Things, I have loved, I'm allowed to keep
And I'm chopping and chopping
Regina, the paper back mummy, what then?
I'll never know if I go to sleep
The papers around me are piling and twisting
And boiling soup from stone
And still I refuse to throw them away
The flowers you gave me are rotting

Things, I have loved, I'm allowed to keep
I'll never know if I go to sleep
They might, so I'm waiting and staying awake
I'm taking in a knife to the books that I own
Things, I have loved, I'm allowed to keep
I'll never know if I go to sleep
