perennial - melanie martinez lyrics
[verse 1: melanie martinez]
lucious meadow, wild, so sweet and green
and within, i bloomed an orchid
thriving, happy, life was so serene
’til a shadow came and plucked me
[pre*chorus: melanie martinez]
took me to your garden
placed in your collection
just to please, planted a seed
of doubt in my mind
so i’d work twice the time
so i could be the flower of your eye
[chorus: jazmin bean]
i ripped all my petals off
wanting you to love me
your love was ephemeral, affection was fleeting
once the winter came along
you left me untended
one of your perennials
you took me for granted
[verse 2: jazmin bean]
slashed me at the stem
and tossed me in a vase
drowned me in the water
and yet i was deprived
just a little ornament
my petals white and pure
you dirtied all my innocence
once withered you grew bored
see melanie martinez live
get tickets as low as $28
[pre*chorus: melanie martinez]
trapped inside your graden
part of your collection
just to please, gate had no key
kept stunting my growth
a parasite, a roach
so selfishly you kept me as a boast
[chorus: jazmin bean]
i ripped all my petals off
wanting you to love me
your love was ephemeral, affection was fleeting
once the winter came along
you left me untended
one of your perennials
you took me for granted
[hook: melanie martinez]
you took me for granted
perenni*eni, perenni*ennial
perenni*eni
you took me for granted
[bridge: melanie martinez & jazmin bean]
oopsie daisy
fell into your primrose path
i made your life easy
filled a hole leaving my roots exposed
stability, could not find under your gilded rose
had no gravitropism, no idea where we’d go
leaving me for months on end
(yet you hid sunlight from me)
when i thought you were my friend
(gave food periodically)
can’t grow in your acid soil
(won’t let me flower so it’s)
time to flourish on my own
[chorus: jazmin bean]
i’ll grow all my petals back
don’t care if you love me
self love’s not ephemeral
lives unconditionally
once the winter comes along
i will bloom despite it
i’ll live on, no annual
you’ll see what you’re missing
[hook: melanie martinez]
perenni*eni, perenni*ennial
perenni*eni
you took me for granted
perenni*eni, perenni*ennial
perenni*eni
won’t be your perennial
