Wasted Flowers
Verse 1:
Walking down Central Street yesterday
I found the flower shop you loved
Remember when you said some loves fade away
Cause these flowers remind me of us
Red and green, your favorite roses
Bought them, thinking of you
Maybe I mistaken where we were heading
Cause I thought you would love them too
Chorus:
And I know we weren’t perfect
Maybe I do deserve it
When you promised you would love me so
Don’t tell me you didn’t mean it
Cause I see what you’re thinking
Maybe we weren’t built to last
Now you’re holding her hand
We were gone just like that
I’m still holding on to wasted flowers
Verse 2:
Ran down the street just trying to get away
Maybe it wasn’t the best decision
The roses in my vase are now turning grey
Just another, to add to my collection
Hard to forget the moment I dropped the flowers
You looked up, scared you were caught
Maybe it’s been weeks or a few hours
You say “It’s not what it looks like”
Chorus:
And I know we weren’t perfect
Maybe I do deserve it
When you promised you would love me so
Don’t tell me you don’t mean it
Cause I see what you’re thinking
Maybe we weren’t built to last
Now you’re holding her hand
We were gone just like that
I’m still holding on to wasted flowers
Bridge:
Watching you walk the streets we loved
Holding her hand, leaving what was ours
Was it cause I wasn’t enough?
Or was it cause you didn’t feel the love
I’m supposed to be the crying one
On my knees, begging “We’re not done”
We were fine until we came undone
When you dropped us and you chose to run
You’re okay and moving on
But I’m still here, holding on
To the petals slowly falling down
It’s just me mourning us now
Chorus:
And I know we weren’t perfect
Maybe I do deserve it
When you promised you would love me so
Don’t tell me you don’t mean it
Cause I see what you’re thinking
Maybe we weren’t built to last
Now you’re holding her hand
We were gone just like that
I’m still holding on to wasted flowers

I found the phrase "Wasted Flowers" somewhere and I started to create a story in my mind. This is how it turned out!
