Xander Oberliesen - Pretty Flowers Lyrics

Pretty flowers burning down
In a wildfire in California
Smoke fills the sky and ash rains down
Like blinding snow in late January
A purple palette now turns to red
The sun's gone down but the light's not dead

It's burning down
It's burning down
Burning down
Burning down
It's all burning

Pretty flowers burning down
In a wildfire in California
Swept away by a sea of flames
As the fire gets hotter and distends its rein
Pretty flowers blooming now
Are all burnt down as flames engulf the ground
Eye-watering smoke's a testimony
To the fire's wrath and unholy glory

It's burning down
Burning down
It's all burning

Pretty flowers burning down
In a wildfire in California
Ash rains down and anoints the ground
White and ornate like a wedding gown
Like a blinding snow in late January
Ash flows hot through a September sky
A purple palette now turned to red
The sun's gone down but the light's not dead

It's burning down
Burning down
It's all burning
