Flashbacks Lyrics by @FernChalamet

Flower Boy

2022

[Verse 1]
Well, maybe this is how the real world works
Happy endings don’t exist, it all just sucks
And my body could be out there filled up with dust
Yeah, no one out there would give a fuck

[Chorus 1]
But I still care about you, my darling
Did you really have to leave me?
Maybe if you had stayed I wouldn’t be this mess
Maybe we would still be standing there
Dancing in the mall
A flashback of us
Back when we only had to run

[Bridge]
And you write to me like you wanna keep writing this story
Just to close the book and safe face by saying sorry
The chapter’s closed
A flashback of us
Is the last page before it’s done

[Post-Chorus]
Wait, no
I’m not doing this shit

[Verse 2]
For so long I’ve been a puppet
Tried to cut the strings but they controlled it
But this time I won’t be looking back and tear about it
No, it’s time I do something back now then

[Verse 3]
Weed, Cocaine, even meth
Beer, a blade, laying in my bed
Been looking for an exit physically
But the only way to escape is inside of me
Yeah, it’s all in me

[Verse 4]
Cause my flesh, skin and bone are so weak
I must get rid of all of it
So I can finally be free
Escaping from life, from misery
But as my last breath gets near
A stop of memories comes in

[Chorus 2]
Cause there we were playing hide and seek
But I was never able to find you since you disappeared
Pictures in my wall
A flashback of us
Was the only memory left at all

[Chorus 3]
And I keep going back to when you promised me the stars
Now I have nothing but these toxins to help me heal the scars
And I can’t stop
This flashback of us
It keeps coming back and forth

[Chorus 4]
Cause there we were again in our little road trip
You said you’d never travel the world if it wasn’t with me
The same road
A flashback of us
But it isn’t the same anymore

[Chorus 5]
And I keep going back to when we would scream all night
Saying I ruined your life when I got you into mine
Room full of smoke
This flashback of us
What’s done can’t be undone

[Outro]
Pictures in my wall
Dancing in the mall
I can’t stop
This flashback of us
The chapter’s closed
Room full of smoke
The same road
Filled with flashback of us
Deep in my bones
I know what’s done can’t be undone
And the only thing left from me at all
A flashback of us
