Lyrics for Effloresce and Deliquesce

Effloresce and deliquesce, carefree sparkling effervesce Sparks ignite the starry-eyed, soon a supernova Effloresce and deliquesce He bursts froth and then regrets She brakes down and when he goes slowly ices over Effloresce and deliquesce She may weep but he knows best Crystallize before his eyes Tears can't conquer power Now they're acting, watch this happening Then undergo change to tease the other Now they're fighting, this part's frightening Lies are flying The silence boiled over Over-reacting See them trying Counter-acting changes in each other Other forces force them higher Tears are scalding Anger flows like fire Effloresce and deliquesce She burst forth and then regrets He breaks down and when she goes slowly ices over Effloresce and deliquesce He is weary, needing rest She is too but in an hour thy burst into flower
