Perihelion days are here Whale music and poison kitchens From rainbows to shadows This is the ripening In a house of 1,000 rooms A girl waved her finger to follow But swaying her translucent dress I saw the girl was hollow Candles in the rain Battles and butchery Accidental intoxicants Take your easel to the streets Find another road Avoid the body police It’s a still world but moving mind We all end up dead meat I see them in a psychedelic state But there’s no love I met them in an overcrowded place But it’s no home Perihelion days are here As the hours fill with nevers This is the ripening Fake flowers last forever

Fake Flowers Last Forever
Perihelion days are here Whale music and poison kitchens From rainbows to shadows This is the ripening In a house of 1,000 rooms A girl waved her finger to follow But swaying her translucent dress I saw the girl was hollow Candles in the rain Battles and butchery Accidental intoxicants Take your easel to the streets Find another road Avoid the body police It’s a still world but moving mind We all end up dead meat I see them in a psychedelic state But there’s no love I met them in an overcrowded place But it’s no home Perihelion days are here As the hours fill with nevers This is the ripening Fake flowers last forever
