When the Flowers Stop Working

I'm not the carnival
You can't just pay to play me
I'm not the cinema
Not just your entertainment
I'm not a restaurant
Something to fix your cravings

You're like a gallery
People will claim you're wonder
I just see reality
A simple paint-by-numbers
Was in a fantasy
Till I saw your true colours

Your two lips just ain't worth it
It's in your nature to hurt things
Even the most perfect roses
Can cut you up like a surgeon
Your irises make me nervous
Love me, love me not, it's worthless
You know you're with the wrong person
When the flowers stop working

We're like a skating rink
We go around in circles
Just like a champagne clink
Too hard will break for certain
Just like a day in spring
Forecast is never perfect

Your two lips just ain't worth it
It's in your nature to hurt things
Even the most perfect roses
Can cut you up like a surgeon
Your irises make me nervous
Love me, love me not, it's worthless
You know you're with the wrong person
When the flowers stop working
