The flowers are dying
And I'm done trying
To keep 'em alive, yeah
It feels metaphorical
As if our love was floral
But did it ever thrive, babe?
I kept your bouquet
But soon I'll have to throw it away
You could say we cut our love too short
But it was fleeting from the start
Well I guess we didn't care enough
So we were bound to wither up
Now the flowers are dying
Our flowers are dying
I swear that I did my best
I trimmed, fed, and watered them
I've never had a green thumb I guess
But I couldn't save them
You didn't put the same in
No wonder they're all I have left
Ripped from our roots
There was nothing to grow into
You could say we cut our love too short
But it was fleeting from the start
Well I guess we didn't care enough
So we were bound to wither up
Now the flowers are dying
Our flowers are dying
There's no enchanted rose
It's too late for true love's kiss
The petals have fallen to the floor
I'm holding onto thorns
I'm pretty sure that you loved me
But you don't anymore
You could say we cut our love too short
But it was fleeting from the start
Well I guess we didn't care enough
So we were bound to wither up
Now the flowers are dying
Our flowers are dying, oh-oh
The flowers are dying
Our flowers have died
