Flower Girl - Joe Henry

Of course there was no gold mine

I freed the dogs, burned their sled

I killed the guy asleep in bed

I pushed him off into the drink

Who needs to know from I told you so?

Go tell it to your lord

I said go tell it to the lord

I was gonna be the bride

Of this whole godforsaken mountainside

Instead I’m just a flower girl

Dropping petals off of this empty world
