about

The genus Pulsitilla: pasque flower (or pasqueflower), wind flower, prairie crocus, Easter Flower, and meadow anemone. These flowers are a good example of that mysterious duality of plants that can heal and hurt, dangerously slowing the heart, or curing ailments. Some relationships are like that too, particularly the forbidden relationships we must hide in our youth

lyrics

Banishment, from the very heart of her
She was heaven sent, but dreams come true can be absurd
Contentment, the specter that would loom above each moment we tried to dress the madness up as love
Bewilderment in the desert of her mind, I got desperate fro something wetter and less wild, and for some encouragement that it was possible I would survive
If she'd only sent a little bit of manna from the sky
She showed me all of the wonders of sleeping out
You go to sleep seeing stars, wake up smelling flowers
The Pulsitilla and the Paintbrush peeking out
But there's a price to be paid for sneaking out
The cruelty, the novelty, a creature with a pleasing sting that feels so good as it afflicts, you almost could believe in it
The cruelty, the novelty, a creature with a pleasing sting, that feels so good as it afflicts, you want so bad to believe in it
She showed me all of the wonders of sleeping out
You go to sleep seeing stars, wake up smelling flowers
The Pulsitilla and the Paintbrush peeking out
But there's a price to be paid for sneaking out
