Kojey Radical - Flaws : A Lament To Rose lyrics

[Verse 1:] I was told: never marry a muse, meant [amusement] many things But probably to keep illusions intact I mean who likes the truth anyway? The only thing I've ever known to share thornes with roses Ramble but keep it all to myself Fish that swim shallow beg to be caught Tangled in nets thrown to water by the nosy Mind your own, Company could be sweet I've been known to cut ties But real wives no wise men still need advice Sometimes I wish talking to you was easier The writers curse is to never feel solitude If they can write words, they're (dear)… Never mind Pluck your petals, Pluck my petals until there's nothing left and so we're Scared and bare like newborns or buried seeds Let's begin again You said, "To love a man, you must love all of his flaws" [Verse 2:] Another bedroom wall Another face in the pillowcase I don't recognise Laid bare next to a stranger like newborns without the innocence My feet dangle off the edge of another relapse Hunting for love like opium and lapse of lost souls That are just like me with a little more hope If what you say is true I admire your patience Women should be more careful with the men that they pick But to love a man you must love all of his flaws As you would say, "To give your heart is to understand it may be broken" But I can't fix these soiled thoughts if you won't let down your guard -Then [garden] I wear my flaws on the surface like memories beneath scars Then cover them with outfits made of false confidence and au revoirs Merely a man made of mistakes stitched together with good intentions Sharing earth with other angels who don't deserve their wings, you mentioned Manipulation, love and lies all go hand in hand Who hurt you? Who hurt you? You said, you're constantly ready to be thrown away to excuses Who hurt you? You said, to be with...to be happy, you cannot be mutually exclusive You said, it's virtually impossible to accommodate without losing value in self value You said, I want to be with someone who makes me happy, Someone who appreciates me for who I am Someone who is proud to be with me and wants people to know about it Who hurt you? Was it me?
