water the roses - flavor foley lyrics

i guess it can’t be helped
it’s just a matter of when
do you think she’d notice if
i never bloomed again?
as my roots grow tangled
letters rotting on read
i just close my eyes
as i get stuck within my head

late nights alone
the sapling prays to grow
to sow
to see you through the phone
through paths unknown
my heart elopes by prose
h*llo
awarded best in show
my inking slows, and
we’re running in circles again
a worn out plea for anything
to prove this poem complete
i’ve come to see
that if it’s bеtween you and me
words won’t get through to anyone
lost in thе flower*buds
it’s only three small words that i’m desperate to hear
but i can’t be certain if you’re always nowhere near
if the sun grew cold, proving all that i fear
if i had your blessing, then it all would disappear
but i feel so stupid
cus you feel the same
and when i water the roses
i can’t trust you to stay
so here i lay
neath the shimmering moon
just a love*struck fool
what do i do but wait for you?

late nights inert
rehearsing every word, unheard
a sonnet*silent blur
and sure it hurts
these fingertips covered in dirt
still digging for a love returned
a single sordid verse
it’s only three small words that could make me run away
moving soil like mountains for a chance of brighter days
but the eight small letters never show me their grace
kiss a rose or push daisies under skies forever gray
and i feel so stupid
cus you feel the same
and when i water the roses
i can’t trust you to stay
so here i lay
neath the shimmering moon
just a love*struck fool
what do i do but wait for you?
people come and surely they go
flowers wilt and surely they grow
oh, my heart, don’t spare me the truth
when i bloom, it won’t be for you
oh, people come and quickly they go
oh, right through my heart, will i ever grow?

“i guess it can’t be helped”
“it’s just a matter of when”
if she just won’t notice
then i’ll take it on the chin
if our roots grow separate
if the roses stay dead
i can plant new seeds
and pen tomorrow’s flowerbed
and i feel so stupid
cus you feel the same
and when i water the roses
i can’t trust you to stay
so here i lay
neath the shimmering moon
just a love*struck fool
what do i do but wait for you?

people come and surely they go
flowers wilt and surely they grow
oh, my heart, so sure of the truth
when i bloom, it won’t be for you
oh, people come and quickly they go
oh, soon comes the spring, these roses will grow
