I smell the roses
Pain in the mornin'
I saw that you left me
Soon to forget me, yeah, I know
I'm at my lowest

Test my strength in the morning
Just like getting up out of bed
Ooh, I'd rather just lay here
On the lies that I tell instead
You don't call, but you need me
There's that lie that I tell myself
When I think that I miss you
Ooh, it hurts when I'm by myself

Maybe I'd be better alone
Instead of together
With someone who makes it feel like
The rain is gon' last forever
'Cause, baby, I ain't waterproof
Wearin' down at the thought of you
Tell me what the fuck am I to do

I smell the roses
Pain in the mornin'
I saw that you left me
Soon to forget me, yeah, I know
I'm at my lowest

Losin' my lady
Girl, you be drivin' me crazy
I been thinkin' 'bout you lately

With someone who makes it feel like
The rain is gon' last forever
'Cause, baby, I ain't waterproof
Wearin' down at the thought of you
Tell me what the fuck am I to do

I smell the roses
Pain in the mornin'
I saw that you left me
Soon to forget me, yeah, I know
I'm at my lowest
Downward and lonely
I saw you left me
Soon to forget me, yeah, I know
I smell the roses

Ooh
Ooh
I smell the roses
