Killed By A Flower

Billy Mann

She was always taken for someone famous

Or somebody elso whose got their life together

Daisy was a genius in waitress disguise

She spoke of New York, Vegas

Or use a french word, and flirt for my attention

I couldn't see

The flower was killing me



Time Square scare

Where's Daisy going

I searched for days in cafes, cliches

Nobody will ever know just where I've been

I got drunk till I made a scene

I slept on the village green

She was gone, I was wrong

For chasing a dream

I climbed on the top of the Empire State Building

And screamed
