[Verse 1]

If I didn't make you happy, then I made you mad

And in a strange way, I was happy with that

I was beaming out something I can't take back

Thank God, I was born to react

[Pre-Chorus]

Blade after blade

Waiting for the champagne to spray

A sudden serenade

Through pins and hand grenades

[Chorus]

Give me my flowers

Show me my worth

Don't be a victim of your own corrosion

A little devotion

You needed my magic

'Cause your heart is frozen in blue

I know pretty soon

I'll get my flowers from you

[Verse 2]

Your cowardice, an empty virtue

That hateful stare

Well, let's pretend that none of it's there

I've given more in this life

Than you have to give

And that's something that you have to live with

[Pre-Chorus]

There's a coming of age

Some get there at a different stage

And some will remain

Afraid (Afraid, oh)

[Chorus]

Give me my flowers

Show me my worth (My worth)

Don't be a victim of your own corrosion

A little devotion (Oh)

You needed my magic

'Cause your heart is frozen in blue

I know pretty soon

I'll get my flowers from you

[Bridge]

Used to have a chip on my shoulder (Shoulder)

Been in my heart, getting colder (Colder)

Blips in my life, I've been thinking it was over (Over)

But the hurdles I got over (Over)

Now it's in the past like a gas off of my shoulder

[Chorus]

Give me my flowers (Give me my flowers, yeah)

Show me my worth

Don't be a victim of your own corrosion

A little devotion

You needed my magic

'Cause your heart is frozen in blue (Frozen in blue)

I know pretty soon

I'll get my flowers from you

[Outro]

I'll get my flowers from you
