Blood on my shirt, two ripped buttons

Might’ve killed me that time oh if I’d let him

He’s slow when he’s drunk

And he lost his grip on me

Now I’m running down la rue St. Paul

Trying to get out from the weight of it all

Can’t flag a cop ’cause I know he won’t stop…

I’ll go see Persephone

Tap tap tappin’ on your window screen

Gotta let me in Persephone

Got nowhere to go but I had to get away from him

My petals are bruised but I’m still a flower

Come runnin’ to you in the violet hour

Put your skinny arms around me

let me taste your skin

……

Mouth to mouth, mouth to flower

Salty sweet you give me power

I feel you shake under my lips

Your fingers tender find my secrets

Don’t make a sound, don’t cry out love

Your parents are sleeping just above

I kiss you once, I kiss you twice

Fall asleep looking in each other’s eyes

Tap tap tappin’ on your window screen

Gotta let me in Persephone

Got nowhere to go but I had to get away from him

My petals are bruised but I’m still a flower

Come runnin to you in the violet hour

Put your skinny arms around me

let me taste your skin

……

Light on your shoulder, light on your cheek

Light telling me it’s time to leave

The birds are calling to the morning

Your parents’ feet above us stirring

Kiss your belly before I go

Climb back outta your basement window

Back to the cold’s bite, back to the hard life

Back to the harsh bright street

Tap tap tappin’ on your window screen

Gotta let me in Persephone

Got nowhere to go but I had to get away from him

My petals are bruised but I’m still a flower

Come runnin to you in the violet hour

Put your skinny arms around me

let me taste your skin

My petals are bruised but I’m still a flower

Come runnin to you in the violet hour

Put your skinny arms around me

let me taste your skin
