you sent them in a bouquet to me
said they reminded you of my beauty
but those flowers were already dead
kept them in a vase wilting there
shriveled up gasping for air
but it's no use they've turned brown where
they used to be red
"i'll call you," you said
but you never did, you never did again
you said maybe you just need some time
call on one more lifeline
but those hours have already passed
i placed my hand over your cold skin
a heart like yours never gets broken
you knew all along it couldn't last
because you're already dead
already dead
little hearts on fishing line
dance like grapes on the vine
dandelions drenched in wine
they're already, already
little hearts on fishing line
dance like grapes on the vine
dandelions drowned in wine
they're already, already
but this girl's still alive
is anybody out there still alive?
you're already, already dead
