Pretty Flowers

When you throw flowers
Upon my body
When you follow the black cars
Down the alley
When you heard,
My words of pain again
When you see me,
Lying six feet under in my grave
Will you care about me then?

Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
I don't wanna go home
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
I just want to be left alone
Carry me
Carry me
I don't belong here

In your room all alone
Are you thinking of all the memories kept
Worn out by the time that has gone
Are you thinking of all the memories left
-behind

Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
I don't wanna go home
Carry me
Carry me
Carry me
I just want to be left alone
Carry me
Carry me
I don't belong here

Pretty flowers
After a long time
They pile through the mail
Taking a long ride
Through my complex fairy tale
All for you
Pretty flowers
Give me a single rose
Or a simple petal I can call my own
I'd rather have a pretty weed
Than a bundle of flowers from your weeping
Over me

Here they
Carry me
Carry me
I want to go home
Watch them
Carry me
Carry me
I don't want to be left alone
Why won't you
Carry me
Carry me
I don't belong here

Why won't you
Carry me home?
Please carry me home…
I don't want to be alone tonight…
Carry me, carry me…
I want to stay with you,
If that's alright?
Will you carry me, carry me…
Please carry me home…
Back where I…
belong…
