BLOSSOM
lyrics by Christian Tanna

WHATEVER HEARTS WE BREAK
WHATEVER BEDS WE’VE MADE
OUR EVERY DOMINO WILL COME DOWN

WHATEVER LOVE WE GAVE
IT WAS ALIVE THEN STAYED TOO LATE
IN THE KALEIDOSCOPE OF SUNDOWN

THE EVER-RECKLESS WONDER
I LET US LUMBER DOWN THE SADDER ROAD TO SOMETIME
BUT WHEN OUR BEST HITS BOTTOM
SURRENDER HOLLERS LIKE A DYNAMO THAT’S ON FIRE

chorus

WHENEVER I FALL I MAKE IT SENSATIONAL
I MAKE IT NO LESS THAN AWESOME
ONE WRETCHED BLOSSOM COME MAY
I’LL NEVER UN-BREAK YOUR DAY
YOU’LL NEVER TALK ME HONEST COME HELL OR HARVEST…NO WAY

ALL SHOCK AND NO SHINE
NEVER HAVING MINDS IN MY DARKEST TIME TO TURN TO
AND WHEN THE WORDS ARE WANTING
I AM AFRAID I MIGHT STAY AND SOFTLY BREAK

chorus

WE MEASURE OUR TIME IN PLEASANT YET WOUNDED ORBITS
IN THE ONCE HUNGRY DAYS OF FAIRLY ORDINARY LIFE
IN THE WARM FIST REVELATION SOUL KISS
WIDE AWAKE AND MOSTLY DONE
THERE’S A LESSON OR TURNAROUND SO TELL ME…
ARE LEARNING?
ARE WE TURNING?
OR ARE WE BURNING TO THE GROUND?

chrous

WHENEVER I FALL I MAKE IT SENSATIONAL
DON’T BOTHER, DON’T TRY, DON’T CALL
‘CAUSE I’M GONE
