Never do the unexpected, stand up straight, stick it through
Uphold the family that hurts and harms and asks too much of you
What else could I do?
Bury weakness that exposes
Kill the wild with a smile
Watch as wonder decomposes
How could you when I was just a child?
Support the family, don't stray, display, obey, you must be perfect, oh-oh
You suffocate the ones you love, that's not just something you forget
But I'm done with your games, I'll go my own way
A hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs, hanging vines
My life is mine to do with as I choose
I owe nothing to you
When you neglect a flower, it will wilt and fade
Until all of its color has drained away
Paint its petals, the outcome's the same
You've lost the bloom you plucked and pruned, the only one to blame is you
Your prized precious flower is no more, as new shoots arise
The rose isn't there, just the thorns, and it's time to see how I shine
How I shine
The hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs and hanging vines
My life is mine to do with as I choose
I owe nothing to you
What could you possibly expect was gonna happen when you made me?
Oh-oh
Tend to a plant with poison and expect a flower, are you crazy?
You're weak and you're helpless to stop me destroying you
My powers made anew (a child told to sacrifice my future was a worthy price)
(To uphold all your sins and lies)
(What else can I do?) And so now you'll see
What else can I do?
(What else, what else, what else?)
Oh, what else can I do?
