Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/courtney+love/petals_20033605.html ]
All the darling buds of may
They fall with no sound
They carry you down
They carry you down

All the lilies bloomed and blossomed
Wilted and they're shivering
I can't stop their withering
Oh, this world is a war
