Soundgarden - Fresh Deadly Roses (Soundgarden) lyrics

I'd cry enough rain to wash your garden away
But I'm dry as stone so
Your tree's withering and
And I've been known to take a blow
And I know how fair your garden grows with

Fresh deadly roses fresh deadly roses

You laid all your lilies on the grave
Of all the lonely soldiers
You left battle torn
And you cut their pride on your concertina
That surrounds your dying needs and your

Fresh deadly roses (You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses (You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses (Oh, you gave me)
Fresh deadly roses

And now I know just how it feels
To see my love congeal under your razor heel
And your fresh deadly roses
You gave me fresh deadly roses

You gave me the birds in your trees
Buzzing around your disease
And leaves growing blood hungry leeches
And your fresh deadly roses
You gave me fresh deadly roses

One, two, three, four more thorns in my side
Each little wound, yeah
Is getting harder to hide
Each little thorn is getting hard to swallow
I'd love to make you mine to break your
Fresh deadly roses (You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses (You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses (You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses
