Lyrics
Chrysantemum For you I am a chrysantemum
Supernova, urgent star
Astera Compositae For you I'll be a dandeliona thousand flowerettes in the sky
Or just a drop in the ocean
If you know my namedon't speak it outit holds a power - as before
Liliacea A lily of the valleya flower of saron
Helianthus annus For you I even be a sunflower
Do you hear my enlightening laughter?another reason to cut off an ear
You know my name, do you not?don't say it
For it's a sacred, immovable - frozen
Rosa, Anemone et
Nymphea alba I'll even be a waterlily,a marygold, a roseor a little thistle
Euphorbiaa blue dahlia, a black tulipthat's where opinions differthe scholars disagree
My name, should you know itremains unspeakableand it's spoken - malediction
