She Sees Only Flowers by Buck Gooter Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And she sees only flowers
Not the snakes in waiting
Flowers face the sunlight
And the grass is moving

[Verse 2]
Stopped dead in her tracks
She sees only beauty
Marching towards the light
Ignorant to the snaring

[Verse 3]
In the dance of the fairies
Their steps leave colorful blooms
Even on this blackened earth?
Even in the yard of a tomb?

[Verse 4]
The asp in the undulating grass
Ready to spring forth and attack
Ready to eclipse with its shadow cast
Darkness overtaking light in a premature lapse
[Verse 5]
Of life escaping
This moment frozen, seen from the cruelest distance
She sees only flowers
Not the snakes in waiting
