Burnin' Roses

(albüm: Adam Sanders - 2018)

I bought some American beauties, red double knock outs
Yeah I hit Walmart, Walgreens and Betty's flowers 'til I cleaned 'em all out
And then I backed my truck up to her front porch
So she could see the bed of baby I'm sorry's I was there for
She opened the door and said it's a bad time
Wasn't wearing nothing but a t-shirt, and it wasn't mine

And now I'm sitting on a fender dipping long stems into kerosene
Flicking this [?] and brushing this [?] and ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinking any whiskey yet or lighting no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night petal smoking, burning roses

I keep cutting my fingers on these damn thorns
But now there's blood in the dirt but they say love hurts, so I was warned
There's a storm cloud rolling but my plans won't change
I'll be out here starting these fires even in the pouring rain

Yeah I'm sitting on a fender dipping long stems into kerosene
Flicking this [?] and brushing this [?] and ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinking any whiskey yet or lighting no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night petal smoking, burning roses, oh yeah

I couldn't dump 'em on the side of the road or just throw 'em all away
After all that cost me, all my dreams and half of one week's pay

Yeah I'm sitting on a fender dipping long stems into kerosene
Flicking this [?] and brushing this [?] and ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinking any whiskey yet or lighting no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night petal smoking, burning roses

Yeah I'm burning roses, yeah
Aw baby
Yeah I'm getting tired of your memory
Don't care if I burn this whole town
