"Dead Flowers" Malukah - lyrics [OFFICIAL] 

I made a playlist that has all my easter egg songs here. CONVENIENT! ru-vid.com/group/PLE4CE8488145CA2A5 Pro tip: Dead flowers make the perfect dead corsage.

one of those songs that grows on you the more you listen

"Time can be a cruel mistress, in its relentless march forward it robs each of us of many things. Moments, experiences, people..."-Takeo I hope Tom Kane is able to live out the rest of his days in peace and comfort even with the loss of his speech.

I've always loved how calming this song was compared to the others, it fits Takeo's character considering he never really raised his voice or got aggressive with anyone.

I don't think I've ever heard a song from this guy that I didn't like!

Kevin.. I will say what I said last time.. Never stop man

Rest in peace, Original timeline Takeo... You will never be forgotten.

1st: this song sucks. 2nd: okay, this is okay. 3rd: this song is underrated. 4th: I love this song!

"We believe that rescue or escape would soon find us. We pray to the spirits, they did not answer." -Ultimus Takeo

I'll admit, at first I was indifferent, but this song really grew (hue) on me over time

Yes! Malukah! She's has such a nice voice! This song is great!

Absolutely AWESOME! Wonderful job again!

R.I.P. Takeo 1.0

Screw the haters. Malukah is awesome!

An underappreciated song from an underappreciated map

Why doesn't she just water her flowers?

The most underrated Easter egg song, so slow, deep, and just gives me feels

Today I finally did the Zetsubou No Shima EE and I did solo and that was my fist solo EE. I just say that I thank you all for encouraging me to do this. Also thank you Kevin for making this experience a 100 times better you're a fucking legend.

I want that music on spotify :(

I mean this in the absolute best way possible. Malakuh always sound's like she's singing her final breaths before she dies. He voice is just so unique!

This song is the perfect blend of calm and somber. Like it makes you feel calm yet brings tears to your eyes with the cadence of the lyrics. I've always had a soft spot for this song but never could figure out why I liked it... but now I see why.

Always exited to listen to the Easter egg song every time a new map comes out

Everyone says "Man I used to hate this song now I love it." My question is, how could you hate such a masterpiece in the first place?

I absolutely hated this map and this song when I first played and heard them, but over time they've both grown on me a lot. The map still has its faults, but the song is under appreciated as hell

A legendary game, that grew on us all, like this song, over time. As it fades into time, 6 years later we are still here.

I wanna know the drums to this. Perfect balance between accompanying the music without overdoing it while still sounding complex and interesting.

I hated this song at first but now it's growing on me to become one of my favorite Easter egg songs

Dead Fragment: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--m6SyfSfigo.html If you're interested in the writing process

“And so i keep growing dead flowers now and theyre always blooming aknd turning brown around me I keep finding dead flowers now And there’s no way out No beginning and theres no end Theyre all just dead again” I cant help but yell the lyrics when this plays

The new age question - What came first, the music or the map. ;).

I don't play zombies much anymore but I still listen to this all the time.

Years later this song still rocks, thanks Kevin for all of your work, your stuff rocks!

Seeing all the top rated comments are from 4-5 years ago talking about how overhated and underrated this map is just breaks my heart with the nostalgia.. Can't believe it's been so long boys :,)

I know this is probably one of the least liked songs by the community but it Fits the Zetsubo atmosphere so perfectly, making this one of my favorite songs in zombies history

STILL IMO the best zombies song to date. So good, absolutely matches the Zetsubo map. A song of Despair for an island of Despair. Pefect!

Kevin's shirt still amazes me to this day. "I made a song with Zombies in it!!!" That's the quote of the century.

“And so I Keep growing Dead flowers now And they're always blooming and Turning brown around me I keep finding Dead flowers now And there's no way out No beginning And there's no end They're all just dead again” I’m not sure if this was intended, but this seems to mirror what happens in the end of Revelations. The crew try their hardest to “secure a future for the young ones”, but in the end, all they ended up doing is trapping themselves in an endless loop. I’m not sure if I’m stretching this a bit, but this could also apply to the end of BO4 zombies (despite how poorly the story was executed). Because Nikolai and post-Great War Richthofen know that they are in a loop that is impossible for them to get out of, they decide that the only way to end the cycle would be to end themselves. The only issue I have with this idea are the last few lines, “And now I see/Them [the dead flowers]growing/On their own”. I think that the dead flowers represent all of the problems (zombies, 115, etc.), but if they are happening on their own (not because of the primus/ultimus crews), then why did they end up killing themselves? (Maybe I’m just looking way too deep into this?)

Gorgeous :)

I remember before Gorod Krovi came out everyone was speculating over the next song. "Dead again, Dead flowers, what's next? Dead Vodka?" Don't ever stop making great music Kevin.

How do you do this. Pretty much all your songs. Whenever i first listen to them i find them meh. Then i end up listening to them non stop. How do you do this.

Under appreciated map

Do you purposely put a long intro so you can fit the credits in the beginning?

Man to think it’s been 6 years. I still remember all the late night high round attempts all the Easter egg attempts and so much more. There is nothing I can say other than thank you to everyone who created this masterpiece of a story and games

Best song of the 'Dead' trilogy

i wish i was frozen in time when this game came out. from middle school to halfway thru university, i’ve played this. yet i will never get over when it initially came out. dead flowers of my childhood are everywhere *cliche*

Even though im not a fan of zombies nowadays I still love the music, kevin elena mula and anyone else are legendary, keep rockin guys :)

Bro I ALWAYS come back to this song omfggg it doesn’t get old that guitar at the start 👏👌the best part of the song

Aww, Kevin, it makes me so happy that you're still uploading music. I've been a fan of you sine Pareidolia. Keep up the awesome work.

This song has grown on me since I've first heard it. I liked it, but now it's one of my favorites. Kevin, please keep it up; you're amazing!

The use of similar structure to make poetry verses more beautiful is damn impressive and it never ever should be forgotten

I have no idea why I didn’t listen to this banger as much back in the bo3 zombie days ( mainly listening to the more popular zombies songs) but I’m glad I am right now this song slapss 🔥🔥🔥

“ The leaves are falling and they’re calling out my name, and all the birds that once were singing are now screaming out in pain that I can feel.” This part is so awesome 😎

One of the few songs that genuinely works with the theme of the map itself. I absolutely love songs like not ready to die, pariedolia, and beauty of Annihilation but they dont really feel tailored to their own maps

Zetsubou and everything about it was underrated by the community. It's a good map, just took long to set up and had a really satisfying wonder weapon to listen to everything die.

My friend showed me this a long time ago. I'm glad I still remember it. It's absolutely stunning I miss him

The hate for zetsubou needs to stop. A few RU-vidr's starting disliking it for the glitches and then it turned into a whole bandwagon of "zetsubou is the worst map in black ops 3" and their mindless subscribers who follow them.

So, next one is going to be with Clark S. Nova and the final with whole group like the Archangel?

GUYS THIS SONG IS FINALLY ON SPOTIFY incase nobody found it yet

I had to come to the comments to say that this by far is my favorite song produced. I think that has to do mostly from the meaning behind it and how it’s performed. It’s very beautiful and artistic in my eyes.

The guitar and lyrics in this are amazing, dude. Great work, Mr. Sherwood! Also - great job on Malukah's part - her voice is amazing.

this song was crafted with such skill, if im right, the mixollydian mode where g is the focus during the chorus, dancing around cmajor and cminor, plus theres such a gorgeous voice doing this fresh ass melody with unconventional vowel sounds, all backed by this damn sweet theme of zombie plants...the guitar and the slower tempo make it feel so heavy...plus the end. might not be your favorite in bo3, but im convinced this is the best sherwood ee song written.

It seems to be an unwritten rule that any swamp setting in a videogame has to be shit on by the general community. It's ashame because I personally love this map, the song, and the story it tells. Thank you Kevin, Malukah, And all of Treyarch for this masterpiece and it's memories

These songs always have a sense of beauty to them, regardless of how elevated emotions seem to run while they play. It's a paradox of beauty to be mixed in with violence or the macabre, but I do have to say the synergy produced through the music and the voices who sing are just so beautiful together.

5 years on, still the greatest song ever composed, thanks kevin

Crazy to me how many people are talking about not liking this song the first time they heard it. I loved it.

This is literally the best thing about the map! I'm addicted to this song Mr Sherwood!

Reminds me of that Pair a' Doilies song! Keep up the great work! :D

I can’t believe there’s a comment from 6 years ago. Meaning that Zetsubou came out more than 6 years ago. Crazy how time flies.

Kevin should try to rap the next Easter Egg song. He could call it "Spitting Fire" since the map will feature dragons.

💔💔💔 i love this song man, so great

Call of Duty Zombies (world at war, black ops, black ops 2, black ops 3) through the long hours of round survival... mystery boxes, perk machines, Easter eggs and amazing story.. cod zombies, our friend, our thrill, and lovably zombie game ever. 2008-2016 and forever.. Rest In Peace..

God damn.. I'm in love with this song. You're such a genius. now this is my top favourite with Pareidolia.

YES!! Thank you daddy Sherwood!

Still the best zombies song of all time

Good job Kevin, you succeeded in your job where literally everyone else failed.

Malukah's voice carries so much power in this song!

Love it, and Malukah is amazing as always

Another great song, would´a loved to have Elena, or the livestreams again.

lets be fr this song is a banger . and a masterpiece

This is the best Cod Zombies song in my opinion. So much debt to it and kicking it with the guitar

This is deffo one of my favourite rock songs of all time!

this and coming home are my 2 favorite songs of you

I've listened to this a little bit more and at first thought it was bad, but after a while, I can see they were trying to pull off a Where Are We Going 2.0, and Where Are We Going is my favorite zombies song, and I feel that this is a very good sequel to it!

I'm guessing next is Clark S. Nova and the last DLC is going to be Avenged Sevenfold ft. The Zombie crew.

This map is underrated, personally I loved this map. Yeah some of it was annoying at times but in all reality. This was the next shi no numa to me. Loved it ❤

I used to think “where are we going?” was the best of the Malukah collaborations with Sherwood, then I heard this one, and it struck me how it grows on you. Sign of a good song that.

I remember first hating this song, but then it grew on me. Now, whenever I listen to it, I just get hit by a wave of nostalgia because of the all the memories I have of pulling all nighters on bo3 with my homies who now don’t go on anymore

Takeo got a really good song based on him for such an underrated character. Seriously.

I have to admit: When I saw it wasn't Elena in the title, I was sceptical, but then I listened to it and.. *damn* Kevin.

I've always loved this song since i first heard it. Just something about Malukah's voice coming off of Avenged Sevenfold and Elena's classic BO1 songs hit me in a different but amazing way.

What I adore about all these songs is how they are beautiful in such a somber and chilling way. It really creates an effective atmosphere of loneliness and desperation that these songs are developed for. Also, you made flowers of all things into a song that translates into a setting of emotions as previously mentioned highly effectively. Seriously, great work.

ZNS is such full of Emotions. I was very depressed in 2016 but this map really cheered me up in a depressing way. I was also anxious asf too. This map is so depressing but i love it. One of my favorite maps. It helped through depression and anxiety. Other things helped me too like Gta 5 online, playing with my cousin and his friends. It was great a year, but depressing at the same time. It's like it was mean't too happen. I really liked 2016 but at the same time it was depressing and anxious too me.

I honestly wonder why spotify or apple music doesnt have all of kev and malukah’s music from the games on there. Saddens me tbh

All the songs sung by. Malukah hit diffrent in a good way just... wow. Dont get me wrong I love all the ones. Sung by elena but these ones are something else. 🤘💥🔥😍

A true beauty in disguise

Such a beautiful voice.

I love the first beat when this song starts. it sounds so sad and fits the map

Not sure what kind of music this is, but I like it

I love how the girl who made the best Skyrim cover ever did this

Dude, your work is extremely underrated
