"I'm flawed, but I'm cleaning up so well."


[Verse One]:

You say I was heavensent
but you don't
know that I'm
such bad news.

You say that I'm flawless,
but you don't
know the other side of me
that can break you to pieces.

[Bridge]:
How long can I lie
along the razor-sharp shards of petals?

How long can I die
under the shimmering of alloy stars?

[Chorus]:
Meet me in my metallic garden
where the leaves are silver and gold
where our souls flourish like flowers
and our love never gets old.

Meet me in my metallic garden
where in each wind plays a fantastic tune
a melody of ecstacy
an assonance of life free
where platinum covers the moon.

[Verse Two]:
I think you're a moonbow
in my mad,
dystopian wonderland.
But what's behind
your cute silhouette?

Oh, how tempting you are.
Manipulate me more
and let me forget the truth.

[Bridge]:
How long can I lie
along the razor-sharp shards of petals?

How long can I die
under the shimmering of alloy stars?

How can I deny
the chemistry of steel mixtures in the trees?

How can I rely
on only what you please...?

[Chorus]:
Meet me in my metallic garden
where the leaves are silver and gold
where our souls flourish like flowers
and our love never gets old.

Meet me in my metallic garden
where in each wind plays a fantastic tune
a melody of ecstacy
an assonance of life free
where platinum covers the moon.

[repeat x4.]
