Fix up the broken roses

Try to reverse the pain

Cover up all the damage

No one will know the shame

Repaint the faded petals

In a Sharpie shade of red

Repairing my broken roses

Can’t believe I’m here again

Can’t believe I’m here again

Hopelessly thrown together, the best I can do

With a roll of masking tape and a tube of Uhu

I won't accept they're beyond repair

But those branches are in despair

I haven't given up, there's a chance that you'll see

Maybe in another time, from another point of view

I know that you're thinking bout me, no?

Well I'm thinking bout you

I wish I could unsay, all those stupid things

I wouldn't be sitting here, waiting for the damn phone to ring

Fix up the broken roses

Try to reverse the pain

Cover up all the damage

No one will know the shame

There’s a ring round the roses

I’m already falling down

Tend to my broken roses

Can’t believe I’m here again

Repairing my broken roses

Maybe I can use them again

Alone with my broken roses

Maybe I’ll just throw them away
