lyrics

Those flowers for this pretty home
A kind of heaven a little bit too cold
We see them smile, we think they’re shy
But we don’t even suppose that door hide
A dirty secret inside

And when simple people fall asleep
This woman fights her biggest fear
Insults, submission, kicks
She lives on her knees

She takes his hand, not to feel safe
But ’cause he let them crash down on her face
He’s not ashamed of who he became
He only wanna get rid of his rage
And she’s still take that day after day
She gets over again and it doesn’t make sense
But she says « I’m in love with him »
And sometimes « I feel guilt »
But she’s still going adrift

Do you think about this little girl hiding under her bed?
Is it good for her to believe that’s a normal family way?
Closed doors, sobs and screams : a new lullaby theme…
Free violence that she does not understand

So still let him play
Go on to pray
Convince yourself that is the price to pay
Then to see better days

You take his hand, not to feel safe
But ’cause he let them crash down on your face
He’s not ashamed of who he became
He only wanna get rid of his rage
And you’re still take that day after day
You get over again and it doesn’t make sense
But you say « I’m in love with him »
And sometimes « I feel guilt »
And you’re still going adrift
