Roses Lyrics

[00:32.86] Don't let my ghost drag you down
[00:36.75] If you don't see me around
[00:40.80] It doesn't mean that I fell
[00:43.89] Yeah I'm doing well
[00:45.52] I got some roses to smell
[00:49.88] I hope you smile when I'm gone
[00:53.35] It means I had the strength to move on
[00:57.82] To find another story to tell
[01:01.01] To answer the bell
[01:02.92] I got some roses to smell
[01:06.39] When magic's happening my habit's been coiling up a memory and trappin it right
[01:10.87] In the cavity of my ribs, like the doors of a cabinet might
[01:14.75] But you won't hold onto a shadow just by grabbing it tight
[01:17.84] Set it free and let it back in the light
[01:19.51] Never out of my heart, even when out of my sight
[01:21.55] Leaving is sposed to be hard
[01:22.60] Man I thought it so was selfish of people I love to keep falling out of my life
[01:25.38] But now I know
[01:27.36] No I don't take it personal
[01:32.68] If you got a really lovely place to go
[01:35.24] I will chase my goals yeah, to make me whole
[01:37.48] Cause it's urgent we love and be loved
[01:39.12] I've begun to scrub up with detergent to shine up my soul
[01:41.95] Don't let my ghost drag you down
[01:46.06] If you don't see me around
[01:50.61] It doesn't mean that I fell
[01:53.25] Yeah I'm doing well
[01:54.95] I got some roses to smell
[01:59.23] I hope you smile when I'm gone
[02:03.08] It means I had the strength to move on
[02:07.44] To find another story to tell
[02:10.49] To answer the bell
[02:12.23] I got some roses to smell
[02:15.84] Cause every screen the we tap is screaming that bigger is better
[02:18.58] Better is how you make yourself matter
[02:20.05] But matter is fleeting
[02:21.03] Am I living to feed a machine that I'm blind to see?
[02:24.14] No point in hiding my pride if there's no privacy
[02:27.68] I've already dedicated too much of my time to trying to get my followers up
[02:31.25] And crying out for attention
[02:32.55] And sleeping around to mend a hollow crater inside of me
[02:34.87] Knowing well that it don't mean shit
[02:38.42] Going to the well for another cheap dopamine hit
[02:42.12] I'm done being a bitch to ambition
[02:44.11] I'm already rich
[02:45.84] I got a head that's full of million dollar questions
[02:47.76] And the length of it
[02:48.92] Is I don't need the courage to work
[02:50.22] I want the strength to quit
[02:51.63] Don't let my ghost drag you down
[02:55.61] If you don't see me around
[03:00.27] It doesn't mean that I fell
[03:02.82] Yeah I'm doing well
[03:04.43] I got some roses to smell
[03:08.73] I hope you smile when I'm gone
[03:12.58] It means I had the strength to move on
[03:16.85] To find another story to tell
[03:20.19] To answer the bell
[03:21.84] I got some roses to smell
[03:23.84]
