Flowers

Took me over to your house to meet your family
Introduced me to them saying that you'd marry me
Then you'd look in the eye and say it's just a joke
Then you'd kiss me and I smile did you even know
When you'd say that kinda thing I'd be excited
Got me hoping maybe one day you'd mean it
Always thought I'd only make a fool of someone else
Now you've gone and only made me make one of myself
I guess the flowers aren't just used for big apologies
I guess I should have been more conscious of how you spoke to me
Coz when we fight you'd give me space and not communicate
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holding on to what I thought you were
But when you think too hard eventually it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head now I know wasn't true
Young people fall for the wrong people
I guess my one was you
I was getting any flight so we can make it work
You'd ignore me should've told me you were seeing her
Kinda hate myself for justifying your mistakes
Took a minute but I learnt that shit the hard way
Who are you to tell me I can't be heartbroken
Babe you had the chance the door for you was open
If it's what you need to tell yourself to sleep at night
Then pretend I haven't found a man who finally treats me right
I guess the flowers aren't just used for big apologies
I guess I should have been more conscious of how you spoke to me coz when we fight you'd give me space and not communicate
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holding on to what I thought you were
But when you think too hard eventually it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head now I know wasn't true
Young people fall for the wrong people
I guess my one was you
If there's anything I have learnt is you should watch yourself
If it's hurting you then leave and go and get some help
