Lyrics
Roses are red violets are blue
Say it again till it feels true
The world wants perfect so I pretend
But it's getting harder to defend
Can't let the cracks show what's inside
Have you seen blood that vivid red
Like thoughts that scream inside your head
Suffocation dressed as silence
Peaceful face quiet violet violence
I don't digress I just repress
Do roses still bloom under duress
Feel safer to follow not to stray
Smothered beneath suffocating rays
Hiding from judgment to dodge the violet hue
Too scared to break through the flowery cue
Indifference is light so easy to hold
Better numb than feel truth's toll
Roses are red violets are blue
I keep saying it hoping it's true
The world wants perfect but the weight wears thin
I'm smiling while fragmenting within
The doubts the fear like acid they sear
Is despair the only sound that lingers here
Roses are red violets are blue
I keep repeating repeating to get through
The world wants perfect
So my uniqueness failed the cut
Simple choice shut or go nuts
In a world shaming the awkward and flawed
I wear my scars among the false
I bloom between
The roses and violets of it all
