I,ve picked flower petals
and you haven't notice.
you text me but in
totally different in the halls

after all this time
that pile is still there
trust me i don't think
it's going anywhere

so it's gonna stay there
until you finally see
that the one you should hold
in your arms is me

so..i'll still pick off petals
from flowers one by one
and i'll keep saying those simple
words till those flowers are done.
