I used to think that we could be happy
Putting in my time, giving you your space
But now my heart, it aches
It shivers and it shakes
I just want to see you You would rather stay in and paint
I hope the flowers that I bought you die
I hope the records that I brought you skip when they play
Throw them away If you don’t want my love
Then baby you don’t get the perks
A week, a month since I’ve been without you
Been away so long I hardly recognize you
But I don’t forget, I bury it in regret
You were always strange but now you are a stranger to me
Oh shit, she done it again
I know I could change your mind but you won’t give me a chance
I thought that we could be friends
But you are what you listen to, babe I guess that makes you a tramp
I hope the flowers that I bought you die
I hope the records that I brought you skip when they play
Throw them away If you don’t want my love
Then baby you don’t get the perks
I hope you figure out exactly what you want
And I hope it’s me and that I’m already gone
I hope that flowers that I bought you shrivel and fade
Wither away If you don’t want my love
Then baby you don’t get the perks
