"Wilting" lyrics

The petals turned brown overnight
What was fire now tastes like smoke
We're sorting through the wreckage quietly
Like archaeologists of what we broke

You're wearing yesterday's perfume
I'm wearing yesterday's lies
We bloomed too fast, burned too bright
Now we're just surprised

Wilting, wilting
Flowers don't stay gold
Wilting, wilting
Everything beautiful gets old

The vines we tangled in are dry
The oxygen we gasped turned stale
We were electric, now we're static
Just two people who forgot the tale

The walls stopped breathing fire
The colors bled to grey
We had our riot, had our bloom
Now we're just the fade

Wilting, wilting
Petals on the floor
Wilting, wilting
Can't bloom like that anymore

We were terrifying once
Caught in something we couldn't name
Now we're just two tired bodies
Looking for someone to blame

Wilting, wilting
The morning came too soon
Wilting, wilting
We were never built to bloom
