Lyrics Blossom - Kublai Khan TX

Blossom

Plastic flowers
On a cold level splay
Cigarettes lay sizzling
In your
Tarred ash tray
46 and always sick
My hopes
They were all gone
Vacuum lips and every bit of smoke
Is withdrawn
Get up
A rush of fire burns
I’m in its light
Choked up or chained down
And I burned with it
And I burned with you
Every time you coughed
I feared the very worst
Thinking you ate smoke
To cure your belly’s thirst
Like loose change in a coffee can
Your throat it would burst
And I wanted better for you
Strangled your days were cursed
Charred lungs
And breath that smoldered
I just couldn’t see it
Till I got older
You spoke through crackles
And you walked as if you were shackled
Slowly but surely
It got you too
And I just watched
I did nothing
Fuck
