He's got away with words,
So I got away from him
He's got ocean blue eyes
And I just realized I can't swim

He's got a spell he cast
With the way he laughs
Something his smile does
That I believe in fact that the world was flat
When he smiled when he said it was

Every lie so pretty
Don't you dare fall for it
That's what I tell myself as I lie here on the floor

So here I am, once again
Trying to smell the scent of plastic roses,
Roses

See as good as it feels
I know your love is no more real
Than plastic roses, and the roses
Roses

Ignorance is bliss
But see I know it's a lie
Which in lies a problem witn this

Is it wrong to pretend
I don't know that the truth exists
Can I make believe
I'm a fool just long enough
For one last kiss

Every lie so pretty
Don't you dare fall for it
That's what I tell myself as I lie here on the floor

So here I am, once again
Trying to smell the scent of plastic roses,
Roses

See as good as it feels
I know your love is no more real
Than plastic roses, and the roses
Roses

Willingly the fool
Cause you can only do to me
What I let you
Oh so beautiful this bouquet of deceit
But to me the roses never smelled so sweet
Smelled so sweet
Never smelled so sweet, yeah

So here I am, once again
Trying to smell the scent of plastic roses,
Roses

See as good as it feels
I know your love is no more real
Than plastic roses, and the roses
Roses
