She's the angel on top of the tree   Sugar heart, here she comes   She's goin' to fall on me      Innocence was our fire   We told the truth   I miss the sweet boys in the summer of their youth      Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you   (You)      Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you   (You)      They will make you so   So cynical   The fire burns the flesh, destroy the past that made us old      She's the grace of this world   She's too pure   For the likes of this world, this world is a whore      Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you   (You)      (La la la la)   Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you      I wait till mine and   Hey, it's all mine   Hey, it's all mine   Never knew what I could be   All the darling buds of May, they fall with no sound   They carry you down, they carry you down   (Ooo, ooo)   (Ooo, ooo)      All the lilies bloomed and blossomed   Wilted and they're shivering   I can't stop their withering oh, this world is at war      Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you   (You)      (La la la la)   Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you   (You)      (La la la la)   Tear the petals off of you   Make you tell the truth   Tear the petals off of you   (You)
