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

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

And still I refuse to throw them away
I'll never know if I go to sleep
Things, I have loved, I'm allowed to keep
I'm taking in a knife to the books that I own
