Dead Flowers Lyrics

Here comes the moment I've been worried about

They want flowers but there's nothing coming out of the ground

I thought I'd make it through the drought

With my garden underground

But I let you down

I let you down

Cause all I got are dying petals

Laying withered on the floor

So I got pressure

I got pressure, oh

Tell me I'm doing this right

I don't wanna go waste my life

But I got dead flowers up in my basement

I got dead flowers up in my basement

So tell me I'm doing this right

Only living for what they like

But I got dead flowers up in my basement

I got dead flowers up in my basement

A couple months and the water's still running dry

They lost patience and I don't have an alibi

I wish they knew how hard I tried

To compensate for a lack of light

Do you hear my cry

Do you hear my cry

Cause all I got are dying petals

Laying withered on the floor

So I got pressure

I got pressure, oh

Tell me I'm doing this right

I don't wanna go waste my life

But I got dead flowers up in my basement

I got dead flowers up in my basement

So tell me I'm doing this right

Only living for what they like

But I got dead flowers up in my basement

I got dead flowers up in my basement

Dead flowers up in my basement

Dead flowers up in my basement

I wanna make you feel happy

Sometimes it gets a little unhealthy

My flowers keep on running on empty

And if I'm honest it's driving me crazy

Oh no, I should listen to my own words

Look at the sun and let my flowers grow again

These flowers can't grow in the basement

These flowers can't grow in the basement oh no

Tell me I'm doing this right

I don't wanna go waste my life

But I got dead

So tell me I'm doing this right

Only living for what they like

But I got dead flowers up in my basement

I got dead flowers up in my basement

I wanna make you feel happy

Sometimes it gets a little unhealthy

My flowers keep on running on empty

Running on

Running on

Running on
