“Deadroses“ is a soul-searching track in which bear reflects on his now-distant love with his significant other. He begins to doubt the love they have for each other. Love should be vivid and clear, but he uses the comparison to dead roses to emphasize their parting. At one point, their relationship...
[Verse]
I'm not okay
With the distance that's been growin'
Girl, I'm not okay
I love you, never show it
And I'm not afraid
Of the future, what it's holdin'
Girl, I'm not afraid
Let me shut my eyes, I'm zonin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn the radio down and lay you down too
I could be the one for you
Turn the radio down and lay you down too
I could be the one for you
[Chorus]
I know we're not in love
Love is vivid
No we're not in love
You fall right in it for a week, a month, or maybe just a minute or a lifetime
What's the difference?
Big bang or collision, love is blind
[Post-Chorus]
We had a vision though
Now we dead roses
We had a vision though
Now we dead roses
[Verse]
I'm not okay
With the distance that's been growin'
Girl, I'm not okay
I love you, never show it
And I'm not afraid
Of the future, what it's holdin'
Girl, I'm not afraid
Let me shut my eyes, I'm zonin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn the radio down and lay you down too
I could be the one for you
Turn the radio down and lay you down too
I could be the one for you
[Chorus]
I know we're not in love
Love is vivid
No we're not in love
You fall right in it for a week, a month, or maybe just a minute or a lifetime
What's the difference?
Big bang or collision, love is blind
[Post-Chorus]
We had a vision though
Now we dead roses
We had a vision though
Now we dead roses
[Bridge]
I'm not okay
With the distance that's been growin'
Girl, I'm not okay
I love you, never show it
And I'm not afraid
Of the future, what it's holdin'
Girl, I'm not afraid
[Outro: Spoken Word]
MAN: Now, why did she send them? These broken down, wilted, beat up, rotten-looking flowers
WOMAN: You know, she actually called a florist and did the whole thing. And had them send — she must have had to say "send a dead — dozen dead roses"
