Testo Lonely As A Flower Rusted Root
of the sun
Weâre passing time
in the video store
remembering all the things
that we were
but Iâve been pushed back
to the cradle
though I believe Iâm bigger now
although Iâm lonely as a flower
In the alabaster lazy sun
never long time for the weeping
alabaster lazy sun
in my day
and I swung the door wide open
yes Iâve done my deeds adorned
when I crashed into your building
and I hope you donât cry to long
huddled in debris land
but tommorowâs perfect
tommorowâs Tuesday
In the alabaster lazy sun,
never long time for the weeping
alabaster lazy sun
in my day
but darlinâ donât you weep
silver and gold
Aren't we lonely as a flower
climbing above these walls
Arenât we
Lonely as a flower
Climbing above these walls
letâs forget these stupid buildings
come on my lover take the fall
In the alabaster lazy sun
never long time for the weeping
alabaster lazy sun
in my day
I can remember when
Rock n Roll was somewhat of a God
leaving us naked and so alive
but now itâs
just a two day masquerade
I guess Iâll go
to the corn fields and pray
