Lyrics

Roses

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can't wait for the moment to seize it

(But it feels so far away)

I hold on, but I'm fallin' to pieces, yeah

Looks so good from the outside lookin' in

But real life's got me right back down again

And I don't wanna be here anymore, no

We're movin' too fast, and everybody knows it

I don't wanna lose nobody else to overdosin'

Feelin' left out 'til You told me I'm chosen

I just gotta stop and smell the roses

Don't look down when the sun comes out

There's beauty in the moment your heart is unfrozen

I see stars through the thunderclouds

I just gotta stop and smеll the roses

When it hurts and I can't find thе reason

(I'm just trying not to break)

And I'm shipwrecked, but I got a feelin'

I can't keep spiraling on my way down

Feet on the ground, but my heart in the clouds

And I'm not gonna stay here anymore, no

We're movin' too fast, and everybody knows it

I don't wanna lose nobody else to overdosin'

Feelin' left out 'til You told me I'm chosen

I just gotta stop and smell the roses

Don't look down when the sun comes out

There's beauty in the moment your heart is unfrozen

I see stars through the thunderclouds

I just gotta stop and smell the roses

Slow down, I can't let these blessings go unnoticed

I don't wanna spend time more time lookin' at thorns than roses

We're movin' too fast, and everybody knows it

I don't wanna lose nobody else to overdosin'

Feelin' left out 'til You told me I'm chosen

I just gotta stop

We're movin' too fast, and everybody knows it

I don't wanna lose nobody else to overdosin'

Feelin' left out 'til You told me I'm chosen

I just gotta stop and smell the roses

Don't look down when the sun comes out

There's beauty in the moment your heart is unfrozen

I see stars through the thunderclouds

I just gotta stop and smell the roses

Slow down, I can't let these blessings go unnoticed

I don't wanna spend time more time lookin' at thorns than roses
