Written and produced by Sy Smith

lyrics

Pretty little flowers
Brighten up my space
No one knows the horrors
That got them to this vase

La la la la la
Ba ba ba ba bah

Easy breezy showers
Wash away the stains
No more bloody sidewalks
Thanks to summer rain

Oh my love
You made a fool out of me
Oh my love
Had me believing I was free
Oh my love
There is a thing called gravity
Oh my love
It'll bring you right back where you belong

Pretty little flowers
Brighten up my space
No one knows the horrors
That got them to this vase

Oh my love
You made a fool out of me
Oh my love
Had me believing I was free
Oh my love
There is a thing called gravity
Oh my love
It'll bring you right back where you belong

We were never free
We were never free
We were never free
We were never free
