[Verse 1]:
I'd cry enough rain to wash your garden away
But I'm dry as stone so your tree's withering and [?]
And I've been known to take a blow
And I know how fair your garden grows with

[Chorus]:
Fresh deadly roses
Fresh deadly roses

[Verse 2]:
You laid all your lilies on the grave
Of all the lonely soldiers you left battle torn
And you cut their pride on your concertina
That surrounds your dying needs and your

[Chorus]:
Fresh deadly roses
(You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses
(You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses
(Oh, you gave me)
Fresh deadly roses

[Verse 3]:
And now I know just how it feels
To see my love congeal
Under your razor heel
And your
Fresh deadly roses
You gave me
Fresh deadly roses

[Verse 4]:
You gave me the birds in your trees
Buzzing around your disease
And leaves growing blood hungry leeches
And your
Fresh deadly roses
You gave me
Fresh deadly roses

[Outro]:
One, two, three, four
More thorns in my side
Each little wound, yeah
Is getting harder to hide
Each little thorn is getting hard to swallow
I'd love to make you
Mine to break your
Fresh deadly roses
(You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses
(You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses
(You gave me)
Fresh deadly roses

Soundgarden

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
