lyrics

Well I’ve been comin in hot
Pistols drawn
A little provocation
To get me going

Despite my best intentions
It gets worse

I'm begging for forgiveness
I need some grace
Passive agressive cadence
Puts me in place

Despite my best intentions
It gets worse
And I don’t like the looks of
Someone always getting hurt

Birds and flowers wherever you go
It takes a lot of effort to be alone

It’s not working out so well
Gone and hurt myself
The shit you’ve been talking to me
You raise a few good points
I must admit that I agree

I’m coming out of a funk
A lovers quarrel
It’s not a lack of candor
That puts me off
Spoiled with adulation
what’s yours is mine
Send me your salutations
And hold your fire

Despite my best intentions
It gets worse
And I don’t like the looks of
Someone always getting hurt

Little voices in stereo
It's quite pathetic but at least I know
Birds and flowers wherever you go
It takes a lot of effort to be alone
