[Chorus]

I can't smell the flowers

Felt empty now for hours

Lost my powers

Now I can't smell the flowers

I'm sick of all these towers

Think I done too many downers

[Verse 1]

Hard to see the value in these half-hearted encounters

Can't deal with the truth so we just change the world around us

To feel and smell just like we want it to

Fuck what we're meant to do

Can't hang 'round, be no fool

Wastin' time just getting high

[Pre-Chorus]

Getting high to get by

Clear my mind, yeah, blue skies

All this time, I've been flying

From up here

[Chorus]

I can't smell the flowers

Felt empty now for hours

Lost my powers

I can't smell the flowers

And I'm sick of all these towers

Done too many downers

[Verse 2]

Stuck inside a space I have created

For myself to be 'round no one else

I'm workin' on my spells to get me out of here

Oh, yeah, your words are wisdom

Oh, yeah, you keep on givin'

But now there's no forgivin'

And, yeah, I'm overthinkin'

Some days, I am just sinkin'

Static, nah, I ain't driven

Talkin', but I ain't listenin'

[Chorus]

I can't smell the flowers

Felt empty now for hours

Lost my powers

I can't smell the flowers

And I'm sick of all these towers

Done too many downers

[Verse 3]

I can't smell the flowers

Been hangin' out for hours, where's my powers?

And I'm sick of all these towers towerin' over me

Feelin' fuckin' lonely

Like no one even knows me

Not even my own homies

[Pre-Chorus]

Getting high (Getting high)

To get by (To get by)

Clear my mind (Clear my mind)

Yeah, blue skies (Yeah, blue skies)

All this time (All this time)

I've been flying (I've been flying)

From up here (From up here)

[Chorus]

I can't smell the flowers

Felt empty now for hours

Lost my powers

I can't smell the flowers

I'm sick of all these towers

Too many dow-downers

I can't smell the flowers

Felt empty now for hours

Lost my powers

I can't smell the flowers

I'm sick of all these towers

Too many dow-downers
