Ribbons Lyrics

    I'm lying on my back now
    The stars look all too near
    Flowers on the razor wire
    I know you're here
    We are few
    And far between
    I was thinking about her skin
    Love is a many splintered thing
    Don't be afraid now
    Just walk on in
    (Flowers on the razor wire)
    (Walk on in)
    Her eyes were cobalt red
    Her voice was cobalt blue
    I see no purple light
    Crashing out of you
    So just walk on in
    (Flowers on the razor wire)
    (Walk on in)
    Her lovers queued up in the hallway
    I heard them scratching at the door
    I tried to tell her
    About Marx and Engels, God and Angels
    I don't really know what for
    But she looked good in ribbons
    So just walk on in
    She looked good in ribbons
    So just walk on in

    Tie a red red red red red red ribbon
    Love is a many splintered thing
    Tie a red red red red ribbon
    Don't be afraid
    Just walk on in

    Just walk on in
    (Incoming...)
    (Incoming...)
    Just walk on in
    Just walk on in
    Flowers on the razor wire
    Just walk on in...
    INCOMING!
