did what i know best
i left when things had
started getting good
i'm surrounded by
dying roses in glass jars
a perfect painted portrait
of a night back then
i see the rose petals
in a heart shaped pattern
and begin to think
this is where i belong

you led me in to that dim lit hotel room
saw the bed, and smiled and turned to look at you
you got down on one knee
and pulled out a ring
and i felt my heart drop

a twisted valentine's day
a beautiful, tragic little gift
a diamond ring fit to my size
i didn't know if i wanted that
i didn't think it would lead to that
i thought we would just stay the night together
away from the prying eyes of the world

you led me in to that dim lit hotel room
saw the bed, and smiled and turned to look at you
you got down on one knee
and pulled out a ring
and i felt my heart drop
you saw me hesitate and stood up
opened up the curtains and sat on the bed
and you said to me
"i understand if you don't want to marry me"
and i felt my heart drop right to the floor

i felt so evil
so awful
and i saw the look in your eyes
as you fucking started to cry
i sat down by you
and held you
and told you "maybe it's just not the right time"
but deep down i didnt think
there would ever be a right time
but i didnt want you to know that yet
so i just held you quietly
throughout the night

you led me in to that dim lit hotel room
saw the bed, and smiled and turned to look at you
you got down on one knee
and pulled out a ring
and i felt my heart drop
you saw me hesitate and stood up
opened up the curtains and sat on the bed
and you said to me
"i understand if you don't want to marry me"
and i felt my heart drop right to the floor
yeah, i felt my heart drop right to the damn floor
right to the floor, we wouldn't be something more
