lyrics

If I grow old and sentimental,
You should know it's because,
I don't want ya, I don't need ya
But a part of me does.

I'll figure out the difference
When I'm different, and I'm sobered up.
Dead flowers, I'm too much a coward
To accept your love

When you start walkin'
I start runnin' away
You talk the most
When I don't know what to say

I pull at everything and every string
Until it starts to fray
Dead flowers, I'm too much a coward
To even try to stay

'Cause you're out in the front room
Kickin' snow off your feet
And I'm out on the patio, all alone
And smokin' weed

Somewhere under every little ghost that you keep
The ones you hate the most, but never bury too deep
There's a hand upon the light switch
And he's askin' you to get some sleep

Ah, Rosie, I know he's a kill now,
But he isn't me.

Maybe I'm a fool to think I knew you at all
Maybe I'm just lucky, you've been dodgin' my calls
You lie and say you're busy but we both know
You've been roamin' the halls.

Ah, Rosie, I know he's a catch now,
But you're bound to fall.

'Cause you're out in the front room
Kickin' snow off your feet
And I'm out on the patio, all alone
And smokin' weed

So now who's got the time,
To try to figure out what to say?
