"Roses" lyrics

"Roses"

A lot's been changing lately and I can't tell
If it's me or if it's everybody else
But I'm done wasting my time on the "woe is me" bullshit
That's keeping me from being myself
So look around and tell me what you want me to see
Maybe you're the person that you always wanted to be
Why you wanna be a sad boy, waste your time
Looking for something that was right here all along

I think we're getting it wrong, it's too bad
When did it get cool to be so sad?
We're spinning backwards, did we all go mad?
Yeah, we're only human but we got hands and hearts and noses
So stop and smell the fucking roses

I said that I would never get what I want
But I was only looking for a reason to flaunt
Think I'm over tryna break down everything that comes up
Maybe it's impossible to know what it means
What's it like to be a loser, happiness abuser?
Smiling at the thought of never living it down
Does it matter if it's uphill, downhill?
I'm letting it go, I'm letting it out

It's too bad
When did it get cool to be so sad?
We're spinning backwards, did we all go mad?
Yeah, we're only human but we got hands and hearts and noses
So stop and smell the fucking roses

It's too bad
When did it get cool to be so sad?
We're spinning backwards, did we all go mad?
Yeah, we're only human but we got hands and hearts and noses
So stop and smell the roses

It's too bad
When did it get cool to be so sad?
We're spinning backwards, did we all go mad?
Yeah, we're only human but we got hands and hearts and noses
So stop and smell the fucking roses

A lot's been changing lately and I can't tell
If it's me or if it's everybody else
We got hands and hearts and noses
So stop and smell the roses
So look around and tell me what you want me to see
Maybe you're the person that you always wanted to be
We got hands and hearts and noses
So stop and smell the roses
