Lyrics

​

Pain of Us

 

Don’t know what to feel anymore

Swarms of them they cover our streets

Shield me from the unknown     

Hate   fear   enraged,      I know

 

Beauty comes from pain they say

So Open the circle of love

Beauty comes from pain they say

So Open the circle of love

 

There is them and there is us

None of us are free

Look beyond and see them cry

We change the words they disappear 

 

Beauty comes from pain they say

So Open the circle of love

Beauty comes from pain they say

So Open the circle of love

 

Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah

 

Beauty comes from pain they say

So Open the circle of love

Violent Bouquets by LTMAA - DistroKid

​

“Violent Bouquets” is a dark, atmospheric reflection on the trauma of interpersonal violence, exposing how abuse can be disguised as love and how survivors struggle to reclaim their sense of self in its aftermath.

Lyrics

​

Violent Bouquets

 

I hold the flowers

I'm yours not mine

Violently erase me

Steal me from the light

 

Tell them you love me

Let the lie feel warm

Violently erase me

Unbind me from the dawn

 

Dreams

Dreams

 

I hold the flowers

I'm yours not mine

Violently erase me

Steal me from the light

 

Dreams

Dreams

 

Tell them you love me

Let the lie feel warm

Violently erase me

Unbind me from the dawn
