Own Roses

There were days, mostly nights I Got by on cheap red wine, I Called my parents, had a cry Almost gave up a thousand times but I Made coffee, lived to see a Whole new brand of love that Had everything to do with me My island in flight I grow my own roses Wasn't easy at the start When you're not quite sure what home is When you're growing in the dark Always thought I'd need somebody To lay my roots for me But I found out in the lonely That somehow in the weeds I grew my own roses Oh-woah Oh-woah, oh-woah-oh Oh-woah-oh (I grew my own roses) There were stumbles, almost falls There were boys who never called and Empty rooms I tried to fill up With tequila shots When I found him, it didn't matter If he chose to leave or stay 'Cause I knew I knew me better At the end of the day I grow my own roses Wasn't easy at the start When you're not quite sure what home is When you're growing in the dark Always thought I'd need somebody To lay my roots for me But I found out in the lonely That somehow in the weeds I grow my own roses Oh-woah-oh (I) Oh-woah, oh-woah-oh (I) Oh-woah-oh (I grew my own roses) He can say that I'm to blame And they can try to sow my name But I know me now I know me now (I grew my own roses) I somehow learned that In the hurt I got the garden I deserve And I know me now I know me now I grew my own roses Wasn't easy at the start When you're not quite sure what home is When you're growing in the dark (I grew my own roses) Always thought I'd need somebody To lay my roots for me But I found out in the lonely That somehow in the weeds (I grew my own roses) I grew my own roses Oh-woah Oh-woah, (I grew my own roses) oh-woah-oh Oh-woah (I grew my own roses) I grew my own roses Oh-woah Oh-woah, oh-woah-oh Oh-woah-oh (I grew my own roses) I grew my own roses (he can say that) Oh-woah (I'm to blame) Oh-woah, oh-woah-oh (they can try to sow my name, but I know me now) Oh-woah (I know me now, I grew my own roses) I grew my own roses (I somehow learned that) Oh-woah (in the hurt, I got the garden) Oh-woah, oh-woah-oh (I deserve, and I know me now) Oh-woah-oh (I know me now, I grew my own roses) I grew my own roses
