Roses On My Coffin

[Verse 1] Bills on the table Dreams in a jar Told myself “later” Later got far Phone full of faces I can’t even call Every "someday" Staring from the wall [Pre-Chorus] I keep saying I’m fine With this quiet collapse Smiling in photos While my backbone snaps Tried to run But these promises drag on my feet [Chorus] Just put roses on my coffin Leave me where I fall I been living like I’m locked in Chains I can’t recall If I can’t get what I’m wanting If I never leave this town Just put roses on my coffin Let me lay it down [Verse 2] You wanted fire I gave you a flicker You asked for the truth I lied a bit quicker Tied to the job Tied to the rent Tied to the version Of me that you meant [Pre-Chorus] I keep taking deep breaths But they don’t reach my chest Every choice that I skipped Curling up in my head There’s a list of all the lives I’ll never lead [Chorus] [Bridge] Maybe in another life I miss the last train Lose the ring Lose the weight Of a borrowed last name In this one I’m fading In the clothes that you choose Hands in my pockets Full of “what did I lose?” [low vocal register] [Chorus]
