field of flowers
"field of flowers" is a song that i wrote many years ago in 2001.. one of the original inspirations for this song was Red Hot Chili Peppers "Under the Bridge", if i remember correctly. i just put myself in the shoes of an addict and the song wrote itself (and we're all addicts, really).

lyrics
this field of flowers isn't blooming like a garden should
i bake a dozen in the oven and they smell so good
i pull them out and then i have myself a little taste
i would've stopped but i just couldn't let them go to waste
the walls begin to move before my eyes and i am numb
the walls are crumbling down before me and i have succumbed
to my obsession with possession of these magic beans
i'm ten feet taller and the world is small and so obscene
chorus:
now i'm addicted but soon i'll be running out of seeds
i need to feed these demons growing deep inside of me
and i know i won't become another faceless casualty
so won't you please take a bite and you'll see what i mean
it's getting harder just to barter to get what i need
my garden's dried up and the ground is hard and filled with weeds
johnny cocaine took the night train just the other day
they had to cut off both his legs it shouldn't be this way
chorus
