Melancholic Flowers

[Verse 1: Chester P]
Stepped out of the shadows of [Steins Gate?}
My future self watching me making mistakes daily
As I swam around the shallows of blind hate
In a state of mind
Taking [?] and maybe I
Really need to work on my last words
Searching for a reason to be more than I was
Against all of these odds
I still arrived in the class first
Watching the stars burst
Preparing for a war with the Gods and I cried
Maybe I could walk through the Valley of Death
Return unscathed with a valiant tale
And I could
Be a figure in a history book
But the story's never told from the page where I dwеll
See these planets will collidе in the story I tell
Suttin like the fabrics of Angels who fell
And what about the future that history took
What about tomorrow that yesterday held
Captive, in a bag of true powers that's due for the resurrection
And well
I guess there's more than a tale in a book
I imagine a little boat with no wind in its sails
Crossing territories where heroes are felled
Drifting in a never-ending ocean of life with compass or map
All encompassing tracks that entail
Lifting yourself from God's gutters and tilting the scales
Then I stepped into the open and finally held
Life again
Saw the truth in my eyes again
Raised like a soldier with a lust for this fight to end
This whole economy's based on the injustice of chasing a piece of paper that's basically instructing the ways of the world
Got me searching for some shade in my cell
To sit and think of what to say to myself
About the journey that we took to the great unknown
And inner-growth is all I have to explain it at all
See, I visualise a cloud in the clearest of skies
And although I'm just a man with his back to a wall
Writing the rise and the fall
Vacantly watching my kin racing
Suttin rather deep in the depths of my eyes
I remember when the enemy next to me lied
I remember when the goddess of destiny cried
Telling me never to die
Drowning in poisonous situations, in a shell
I saw the best and the worst of us try
This whole thing is a permanent migration
Life's just a word in a wave of vibrations, I
Say goodbye to the man who I was yesterday
Waving a white flag at the man who I'm now becoming
It's best to stay humble and watch for the signs leading us
In the shadowy depths the truth's leaving us
'Cos it's easier following all these liars into fires of extinction the government wanna feed to us

[Chorus: DRS]
Please don't fly too close to the light
'Cos I don't wanna hear you burnt tonight
You once heard me laugh in black and white
Cry me a glass of wine

Please don't fly too close to the light
'Cos I don't wanna hear you burnt tonight
You once heard me laugh in black and white
Cry me a glass of wine

[Verse 2: DRS]
Blindfolded in the valley of death
Screaming, 'Is there a scally in my battalion left?'
Liquor and Valium breath
Taking valuable steps
Steps of change, I can't play the game
I value what's left, I value [?]
I value everything that they kept
[?] make a cape from my mistakes I collect
My secret lair overlooks [?] estates I protect
Smiling assassin
I'm not your mate I'm a threat
It's not the money, it's the truth that connects
I alienate your demographic with my demos
Graphic illustrate this graphic novel
You just choose to defect
They're just the blues, I expect
No Robert Johnson crossroads
I'm choosing respect
Fame's a duel to the death
We wasn't schooled by the best
But found knowledge in the places scholars choose to neglect
Places they choose to forget
Between a rock and a 'ard place—we loosen the net
Hard body, hard face, a nuisance to them
Angels with a dirty boat race
Broken wings and a noose of regret
They haven't loosened up yet
I'd lead my youts to jet
And send them to a paradise nowhere Lucy expects
Nowhere Lucy can get
[?] the fingertips over future's unrest
Never [?] my nest

[Chorus: DRS]
Please don't fly too close to the light
'Cos I don't wanna hear you burnt tonight
You once heard me laugh in black and white
Cry me a glass of wine

Please don't fly too close to the light
'Cos I don't wanna hear you burnt tonight
You once heard me laugh in black and white
Cry me a glass of wine
