Flowers (Mixed)

Took me over to your house to meet your family Introduced me to them sayin' that you'd marry me Then you'd look me in the eye and say, "It's just a joke" Then you'd kiss me, and I'd smile, did you even know? When you'd say that kinda thing, I'd be excited Got me hopin' maybe one day you would mean it Always thought I'd only make a fool of someone else Now you've only gone and made me make one of myself I guess the flowers aren't just used for big apologies I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me 'Cause 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 holdin' 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, guess my one was you I was gettin' any flight, so we could make it work You'd ignore me, could've told me you were seeing her Kinda hate myself for justifying your mistakes Took a minute, but I learned 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 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've been more cautious how you spoke to me 'Cause 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 holdin' 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, guess my one was you If there's anything I've learned, it's you should watch yourself If it's hurting you, then leave and go and get some help
