[Verse 1]
Took me over to your house to meet your family
Introduced me to them sayin` that you`d marry me
Then you`d look me in the eye and say, "It`s just a joke"
Then you`d kiss me and I`d smile, did you even know?
When you`d say that kinda thing, I`d be excited
Got me hopin` maybe one day you would mean it
Always thought I`d only make a fool of someone else
Now you`ve only gone and made me make one of myself
[Chorus]
I guess that flowers aren`t just used for big apologies
I guess I should`ve been more conscious how you spoke to me
`Cause when we`d fight, you give me space and not communicate
And for a while, I thought that`s what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holdin` on to what I thought you were
But when you think too hard, eventually, it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head now I know wasn`t true
Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you
[Verse 2]
I was gettin` any flight so we could make it work
You`d ignore me, coulda told me you were seein` her
Kinda hate myself for justifyin` your mistakes
Took a minute, but I learned that shit the hard way
Who are you to tell me I can`t be heartbroken?
Babe, you had the chance, the door for you was open
If it`s what you need to tell yourself to sleep at night
Pretend I haven`t found a man who finally treats me right
[Chorus]
I guess that flowers aren`t just used for big apologies
I guess I should`ve been more conscious how you spoke to me
`Cause when we`d fight, you give me space and not communicate
And for a while, I thought that`s what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holdin` on to what I thought you were
But when you think too hard, eventually, it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head now I know wasn`t true
Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you
[Outro]
If there`s anything I`ve learned, it`s you should watch yourself
If it`s hurting you, then leave and go and get some help
