Pretty Little Flowers (feat. Kath Bloom)

[Verse 1, Mark Kozelek & Kath Bloom]
There's 10,000 people
Living in this town
No one ever thinks about
A house that once burned down

[Chorus, Mark Kozelek & Kath Bloom]
Back in 1945
When the wind blew so cold
They were children
Now they're old

[Verse 2, Mark Kozelek & Kath Bloom]
At a county picnic
She gave him her smile
He put his hands behind his back
He was quiet for a while

[Chorus 2, Mark Kozelek & Kath Bloom]
Oh, no one thought, look at her
As she walked on down the road
He was a boy
Now he's old

Pretty little flowers, pretty little flowers
Growing around the rain
No onе ever noticed thеm
Except the ones who come to sing

[Verse 3, Kath Bloom]
Oh, the grass comes growing up
And strangling her name
Pretty little flowers
Who's to stay?

[Chorus 3, Mark Kozelek & Kath Bloom]
There's a woman in this town
Who knew them both quite well
She asserted repeatedly
That there's nothing left to tell

[Verse 4, Mark Kozelek & Kath Bloom]
Oh, the dark is coming on
And she has no sleep
She puts her head in her hands
And she weeps

[Outro, Kath Bloom]
She weeps
She weeps
She weeps
She weeps
She weeps
She weeps
She weeps
She weeps
