Catherine Magarino - feeding the flowers (acapella) Lyrics

We hold on to the things that are dead
We must learn to let go
Though the pain grows
Like the flowers pushing through me
Trying to reach your sun
Some are pretty and
Some are thorny though
They vary they really hurt me
'Cause they don't see what I see
They don't feel what I feel
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
But they're slowly killing me
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
Though our love will never be
I wake up at the break of dawn
And I know that you're not there
It's hard to go about life
Pretending that I don't care
But I'm in pain
The flowers are blooming again
The amount of rain
Gushing through my veins
It doesn't feel okay
Doesn't feel okay
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
But they're slowly killing me
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
Though our love will never be
So lend me your stems and
Lend me your thorns
I, (I), I could not love you more
So lend me your stems and
Lend me your thorns
In the garden
I could not love you more
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
But they're slowly killing me
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
Though our love will never be
(When my chest rips and tears)
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
But they're slowly killing me
When my chest rips and tears
Every time I take in the sweet air
I'm feeding the flowers
Though our love will never
