I can't tell the flowers from the teeth
Am I drowning in the oceans of love
Or the sick black blood of misery
Is it madness causing my heart to race
Or the doubt or fear or truth
Crushing down on me
I can't tell the bullets from the rain
Am I dying for the pleasure
Of this pain
Or dreaming in the sweet
Intoxicating breath of you
Is it poison dancing through
My blood keeping me awake
Or is it love causing
My hands to shake
And my soul to ache
Is it the flowers
Or the teeth
Wrapped around my throat
Causing it to hurt
Every time I breathe
