Dead Flowers

[Chorus: leorinda]
Dead flowers they tower over me
Rose red castles, your green vine shackles
Make me bleed
Bled red for what we couldn't be
Can't handle your thorns
Your scorns, our storms
I mourn with my torn heart on the floor now

[Verse 1: il Westo]
You knew I couldn't stand it
But you kept pressing my buttons
Like an xbox controller, boxed me in, I'm stuck in rut
Outta luck, I'm unconscious what
What ever happened to us
One minute we're blooming
The next one we fuming we were doomеd when we bloomed
So soon, wishing wе took our time
I tried, I know you did too, but it wasn't meant to be
So I'll restart and continue but it's game over
Dead flowers, some lame closure
I need the same shoulder when I'm not sober
I loved her, but did she love me?
Or was it all a game to her when she made my heart bleed?
It never was to me because love's like roses
The thorns hurt, but I never noticed
Then the sun hit your poses
True colors clear, thorn vines up my spine
Gripped tight by your lies and now we're here

[Chorus: leorinda]
Dead flowers they tower over me
Rose red castles, your green vine shackles
Make me bleed
Bled red for what we couldn't be
Can't handle your thorns
Your scorns, our storms
I mourn with my torn heart on the floor now

[Verse 2: love-sadkid]
They say we weren't meant to be, I pushed it
Often times I wonder if I really shouldn't've
The door that hit me on the way out had a foot in it
I never should've took that as a sign to get abused again
But, never say it wasn't real
The love I promised to you love was something that only you could ever feel
Wish that you felt the same and could give me the same deal
But now we're here and I only regret not leaving sooner
The sweet lullabies, lies and lovers hidden
The oft forgotten promise we would try to do it different
The painstaking reminiscing for months after the ending
And then the friction in our hearts wondering where did the pretending start
But here we are, the petals dropped, follow us today
No more pollen in our buds as they were swallowed in dismay
And though the seeds we forced to mature
Surely did their job, we didn't
And now we're forced to face our roots in the dark, I miss ya

[Chorus: leorinda]
Dead flowers they tower over me
Rose red castles, your green vine shackles
Make me bleed
Bled red for what we couldn't be
Can't handle your thorns
Your scorns, our storms
I mourn with my torn heart on the floor now

[Outro: leorinda]
Heart on the floor now
Dead flowers they tower over me, over me now
For what we couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be over me
Dead flowers they tower over me, over me now
For what we couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be over me
Dead flowers they tower over me
