[Verse 1]
Fb7
Passing jacaranda trees
D7
I am lucky for the things that I get to unsee
Fb7 D7 Fb7
reality is heavy and loud and rustles angry crowds of colors that all breathe in sync
D7
but white has the privilege of washing machines
C#7
to wash out the stains from their comfortable jeans
wiping the blood off their hands to their thighs
D7
wearing the blood of the people who’ve died
[Chorus]
Gb Fb D C#
but don’t let the Purple Flowers fool you
Gb Fb D C#
bleach every dirty truth, laundry cycling through
Gb Fb D C#
they are liars, shrinking history in driers, teaching whiter in school
Gb Fb D C#
It’s illegal picking Purple Flowers camoflauging concrete illusions
[Verse 2]
D7
The seasons change
Fb7 D7
And the violets disappear
Fb7
Revealing the violence that’s always been here
D7 Fb7
I fear the force of the forest
D7
Without us they still flourish
Fb7
In a world of non conformists
[Chorus]
Gb Fb D C#
but don’t let the Purple Flowers fool you
Gb Fb D C#
bleach every dirty truth, laundry cycling through
Gb Fb D C#
they’re all liars, we’re on fire, trees remind us they’ve rewired the news
Gb Fb D C#
It’s illegal picking Purple Flowers camoflauging concrete illusions
CODA
Gb7
and the purple trees just wanna be free
Fb7
bursting through the concrete
D7
I am small but significant,
C#7
the world is pretty when we
C#7 Fb7 D7 Gb7
And plant jacaranda trees
