lyrics

BLOOMING

What’s in the air? Do we know or care?
Strange seed floating around
Surrounding our cities abounding and growing
Landing in places without people knowing

Strange flowers, strange fruit
Strange babies, little shoots
Coming up all over town

Blooming all over the world

Alone in the darkness, growing, growing, growing
Hiding in organs, abiding within
Till one day the grim reality, shows up on an ultra sound
A round shape expanding, commanding, our attention
Devouring our tissue, tasting our bone,
At home in our blood, at home in our blood

Cut it out say the doctors or nuke it to death
Or poison our system till there’s not a lot left
Hair falling out and stomach in turmoil
Not to mention the pain
And nobody wants to talk about it
