Lyrics

Comment from Songmeanings.com:

"
ok-- I can't help it.. I have more...

OR... "Anthurium Lacrimae decays" could be beauty-inducing tears in witnessing the strange but wonderous parasitic nature of Anthurium ( or Orchid ) species of flowers that wrap themselves up and thrive in Trees.

Either way it describes so amazingly the theme of the ongoing cycles of decaying and parasitic phonomena in nature that is constantly spinning and evolving into new beautiful things and isn't that the true essence of everything. ( lol- I swear I am neither stoned nor drunk.)
"

And I thought I over-analyzed songs...

It's a good song, could have more of a hook. I like the Niagara reference, and I like that it shares a name and theme with a Joel Plaskett song. That's about it; enjoy!
