I believe this song is about Art Alexakis' oldest daughter. After struggling with mental illness himself, he sees signs of it in her. This makes him feel guilty and helpless, and as if he failed as a parent. He reflects on her innocence and when she was happy. “Sunflowers” represent her as a happy,...
I know where you go when you want to fall
Why do you want to be broken?
Ooh, I know where you go when you want to fall
Yes, your friends they tell me everything
Yes, I know where you go
Yes, I know what you do
Yes, I know the awful things you say
And who you say them to
Yes, I know where you go
Yes, I know what you do
I know how you feel you get crazy inside
They say it runs in the family
I know just how you feel when you get crazy inside
Your mom she said that you are just like me
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your shaky hands
Yes, I think you think I'm stupid
You don't think I understand
Yes, I see you and I see myself when I was a younger man
When you were a child
You were happy and free
You were my reason to live
I would die when you smiled at me
I can still see you
I remember you painting sunflowers in your room
I know where you go when you want to fall
Hey, don't you want to be happy?
Yeah
I know where you go when you want to fall
Your useless friends they tell me everything
Everything
I see you run around in circles
I see you digging your own hole
I see you fight the fights that you just can't win
I see you losing self control
What it does to me deep down inside I hope you will never know
When you were a child
You were happy and free
You were my reason to live
I would die when you smiled at me
I can still see you
Painting flowers on the wall
I remember you happy
I remember it all
Yeah, when you were a child
You were happy and free
You were my reason to live
I would die when you smiled at me
I can still see you
I remember you painting sunflowers in your room
Oh, Sunflowers in your room
(Sunflowers in your room)
Yeah, Sunflowers in your room
(Yeah, sunflowers in your room)
All I want to remember
Pretty pictures on the wall
I remember you happy
I remember it all
All I want to remember
All I want to remember
Sunflowers in your room
Oh, sunflowers in your room
Oh, sunflowers in your room
Yeah, sunflowers in your room
