Jar Of Dead Flowers

Life is an unfunny joke
That's all I've got to say
After its deepest stroke
The price I've got to pay

I'm coming back home
All my trust in you has gone
How can you even look in my eyes
And tell me these shameless lies

Just take a look and then you'll see
This life is a broken jar of dead flowers
It's a grave of lost and buried dreams
And you're just another dying flower

You're the dying flower in the jar
  

The judge and its mortise
Declare the sentence for the guilty
Blame the heart's disguise
For the poisoning of beauty

Those hidden and unforgiven words
Remain on the hands of deception
You've betrayed all the help I gave to you
Now I offer the coldness of my actions

Why can't you see
It's so hard for me
To look at you and shout my feelings out
When I don't even know what I'm feeling now

Just take a look and then you'll see
This life is a broken jar of dead flowers
It's a grave of lost and buried dreams
And you're just another dying flower

You're the dying flower in the jar

Pull away the curtains that uncover the secrets of my mind
Bring the bright to light the darkness over feelings of my heart
Take out your puncher pointing finger from the front of my eyes
Cause you can't try to blind me anymore

I'm walking through the darkness
The arms of oblivion awaits me
Right after the devastating trial
I'll put all my sins in denial

Why can't you see
It's so hard for me
To look at you and shout my feelings out
When I don't even know what I'm feeling now

Just take a look and then you'll see
This life is a broken jar of dead flowers
It's a grave of lost and buried dreams
And you're just another dying flower

You're the dying flower in the jar
