flowers
[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh (Flowers)

[Verse 1]
I have been shot down, dust on my crown
While the whole world sat and watched me
I have bit my tongue when I should have won
Look what being honest got me
And I've always known people don't always show
Thanks for what they have been offered
But I know my worth even when it hurts
I will keep on standing tall

[Chorus]
'Cause I made a home on the mountain you said I couldn't climb
I'm getting closer and closer with every line
Am I the only one scared that we'll run out of time for my flowers?
Give me flowers

[Verse 2]
Know that I've been tested, know that I've been blessed with
All that money can and can't buy (Ooh)
I get no rest, but rest assured
I will keep on standing tall (Ooh)
[Chorus]
'Cause I made a home on the mountain you said I couldn't climb
I'm getting closer and closer with every line
Am I the only one scared that we'll run out of time for my flowers?
Give me flowers

[Bridge]
Give me flowers, give me faith
And that I didn't bleed in vain
Flowers
Flowers

[Chorus]
I made a home on the mountain you said I couldn't climb
Watered my dreams in the dark to watch them die in the light
Am I the only one scared that we'll run out of time for my flowers?
Give me flowers, earned my flowers
Give me flowers
