bed of flowers (demo) Lyrics

I find that every time somebody leaves

It does not get any easier

I'll memorize the lines on your face as you go

I'll seem fine on the exterior

The touch of your hands

Sound of your voice

You know you have a choice

You don't have to leave me void of

The smell of your cologne

One by one, they all go by

The petals on a rose

Leave me till I'm all alone

I'll sit by myself in a bed of flowers

Waiting for them to rot

They'll soon want to leave me too

When they find out what I'm not

I'll smell the flowers while they're here

Just to know one day they'll disappear

Just as everything eventually does

I'll miss you, my love

It's hard to cherish the flowers

When you know they'll rot in time

It's hard to want to love

When I know they won't always be mine

I'll memorize your face as you go

Saying goodbye hurt me more than you know

There's tears in my wine

From all the time I've spent missing you

Why can't you always be mine

I'll sit by myself in a bed of flowers

Waiting for them to rot

They'll soon want to leave me too

When they find out what I'm not

I'll smell the flowers while they're here

Just to know one day they'll disappear

Just as everything eventually does

I'll miss you, my love

I'll sit by myself in a bed of flowers

Waiting for them to rot

They'll soon want to leave me too

When they find out what I'm not

I'll smell the flowers while they're here

Just to know one day they'll disappear

And maybe one day they'll learn to stay

With me for all time while we slowly decay

Would you ever want to rot with me

Or is it meant to be for you to leave

Just as everything eventually does

I'll miss you, my love
