[Verse 1]
[Vocal Delivery: ethereal clean male tenor, doubled, cathedral reverb]
[Chord Progression: Am – F – C – G]
Her voice to me was like bubble wrap
When I was off key she knew how to keep me in tune
Listening to her laugh melted away all my pain
Watching her smile was like staring at the moon

[Pre-Chorus]
[Organ and guitar swell]
[Vocal Delivery: more intense]
[Chord Progression: F – C – G – Am]
I used to drown in her sunny brown eyes every time we rode in the car
She said to me who are you to eventually you’ve gone too far

[Chorus]
[Full driving groove]
[Vocal Delivery: doubled tenor, haunting and catchy]
[Chord Progression: C – G – Am – F]
I used to think that all the good times could outweigh the bad
But all it did was postpone losing what I had
I tried to plant a peach tree just to end up somehow burning it down
The ashes blew away so there’s no humus soil to be found

[Verse 2]
[Same energy]
[Vocal Delivery: clean, doubled, slightly more worn]
[Chord Progression: Am – F – C – G]
She was a katydid that hopped into my trapped heart
She didn’t even mean to
But once she did I tore her apart
I didn’t even mean to
But I break everything I touch
She was like a dark violet vase
My black rose roots grew way too much

[Chorus]
[Heavier]
[Chord Progression: C – G – Am – F]
I used to think that all the good times could outweigh the bad
But all it did was postpone losing what I had
I tried to plant a peach tree just to end up somehow burning it down
The ashes blew away so there’s no humus soil to be found

[Guitar Solo]
[Classic 80s mid-song solo section]
[Overdriven electric guitar takes the lead — melodic, slightly bent notes, tape-saturated tone]
[Hammond organ and Mellotron pads hold the foundation]
[Rhythm guitar stays tight and driving]
[Chord Progression: Am – F – C – G – Am – F – C – G]
[Solo lasts 8–12 bars, builds in intensity, then lands back into the final chorus]

[Final Chorus]
[Maximum energy]
[Vocal Delivery: strongest doubled tenor with heavy cathedral reverb]
[Chord Progression: C – G – Am – F]
I used to think that all the good times could outweigh the bad
But all it did was postpone losing what I had
I tried to plant a peach tree just to end up somehow burning it down
The ashes blew away so there’s no humus soil to be found

[Bridge / Outro Build]
[Arrangement thins slightly]
[Vocal Delivery: more exposed and ritualistic]
[Chord Progression: Am – Em – F – G]
I became shriveled up to where the wind blew me away
My bloody thorns are the only thing that still remain

[Outro]
[Guitar and organ slowly fade under thick tape reverb]
[Soft doubled vocal]
My bloody thorns…
[ fade into silence]
[End]
