[Verse] Froth of the daydream takes its toll Silent whispers from the soul Giant water lilies bloom As shadows dance inside the gloom [Verse 2] Cancer creeps like liquid night In the body's hidden plight Blooming flowers of despair Colors fade in toxic air [Chorus] Daydreams die as giants rise Water lilies in our eyes Bodies weaken hearts unfurl Nature's cruel and twisted swirl [Verse 3] Petals whisper secrets vast Moments slipping hold them fast Living light in darkened haze Doomed to fade in fleeting days [Chorus] Daydreams die as giants rise Water lilies in our eyes Bodies weaken hearts unfurl Nature's cruel and twisted swirl [Bridge] In the depths where shadows reign Lilies grow from roots of pain Frothy dreams turn bitter cold Life’s a story seldom told
