​broken-hearted roses

[Verse 1]
I wanted to be there for you to kiss you after the play
But the landlord saw my texts with you and forced me to stay
I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again, we’re moving far away
I’m gonna learn how to “be a man”, just because I’m—

[Chorus]
Trying to find where I belong in this flower field
Which field will be the place I stay?
I feel a force pulling with all the power it wields
It takes me to where the red ones lay
And all the power in me says that this isn’t okay
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose, anyway

[Post-Chorus]
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose
No matter which way the tide goes
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose

[Verse 2]
It’s been a month of me trying to call 37 times
I know our love is not something your parents would have liked
It’s like everything we had is now out of sight
But baby, hold on, I’m gonna make everything right
Make everything right

[Chorus]
Trying to find where I belong in this flower field
Which field will be the place I stay?
I feel a force pulling with all the power it wields
It takes me to where the red ones lay
And all the power in me says that this isn’t okay
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose, anyway

[Post-Chorus]
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose
No matter which way the tide goes
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose

[Verse 3]
It’s been two months, and I got a bus pass to LA
I hope you’re excited cause I’m gonna see you today
And I’m nervous but it’s too late, I’m on my way
Right now I’m thinking about all things that I’m gonna say
All the things I’m gonna say

[Chorus]
But baby, you’re not here to hear what I’m gonna say
They said that you disappeared into the choppy sea
You’ve been six feet under for a month to date
Now I can’t hold you anymore or get on one knee
And all the power in me says that this isn’t okay
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose, anyway

[Post-Chorus]
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose
No matter which way the tide goes
I guess I’m just a broken-hearted rose

[Outro]
Hey I'm at the phone booth and you're my last
Lifeline, need you to pick up cause it's the
Last time you'll hear from me ever again
Thank you for being my best friend
