The Flowers Are Dying Lyrics

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
