We are like a puzzle
We the missing pieces
We tried to shuffle
We focused on the weakness
As a team we should huddle
We listened to the wrong people
It's why we fumbled
I wish we had our own reasons
It's why the finished set didn't portray our feelings
It broke me when you told me you were leaving
You left a note on the table
Cause of me in love you believe in
Without you I can't read it as my achievement
There's much I don't know
But I wish I did
I'ma tell you what I do know
It's hard to reminisce
I still wonder what our future could've been
Whether he or she would've had your lips I used to kiss
These feelings move like the ocean
These waves made me hopeless
Drifting like my emotions
It's why I went and picked you
These black roses
Black roses
I know we wasn't ready
But tell me who was
Life moves fast
It's why we're always in a rush
I take a sip just to slow it down
It's never enough
It's why every weekend
I find myself drunk
With every single glass
I remember you
With every single past
There's something new
It's how I always keep you on my mind
Cause the things we'll never get to do
Why I pick up this pen
To pick up the pieces
Just so you know I'm still alive and breathing
That I'm a better man than what you were used to seeing
All the karma points you gave me for help
I spent on healing
These feelings move like the ocean
These waves made me hopeless
Drifting like my emotions
It's why I went and picked you
These black roses
Black roses
These feelings move like the ocean
These waves made me hopeless
Drifting like my emotions
It's why I went and picked you
These black roses
Black roses
With every single glass
I remember you
With every single past
There's something new
It's how I always keep you on my mind
Cause the things we'll never get to do
