Bermuda Buttercup

Here's a new song, written on 3/22/11. It's called "Bermuda Buttercup".




She's the flower
I'm the seed
Indigenous
To misery

Cut the stems
Burn the leaves
Pluck the petals
Plant the seed

She's in bloom
Bermuda Buttercup
Go away

She's in bloom
Bermuda Buttercup
Dies today

Smooth as silk
Pale and thick
Vibrant love
Turns to shit

Cut your lips
On my teeth
The soil licks
Begins to breathe

She's in bloom
Bermuda Buttercup
Go away

She's in bloom
Bermuda Buttercup
Dies today

Grow to death
Pull the weeds
Suck the dirt
Drain and feed

How is it
Love so true
Quickly wilts
After it blooms

She's in bloom
Bermuda Buttercup
Go away

She's in bloom
Bermuda Buttercup
Dies today

Bermuda...
