Roses
Benny Blanco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Roses are red, violets are blue (check)
My heart is dead, I'm such a fool
Why did I fall for you?
I gave it all for you
Roses are red (check), violets are blue (check)
My heart is dead (check), I'm such a fool (check)
I gave it all for you
Feelin' lost, don't know what to do
But I just got some head in the back of my coupe
Still feelin' dead when I think about you
I can't do a damn thing when I'm without you
I'ma take a trip to the past off the shrooms
Off the acid
Then I'll fuck a bad bitch
Uh, ayy, call me young savage
But I'm ballin' like a young Maverick
This heartbreak music is such a passion
I thought I left it inside the past-tense
You gave me your heart, it was made of plastic
No father-havin', I'm a bastard
At least I'm a rich one
You need a real nigga, you should go get one
So many hoes in my face, I could pick one
Make her pop it like a zit, huh
Roses are red (check), violets are blue (check)
My heart is dead (check), I'm such a fool (check)
Why did I fall for you?
I gave it all for you
Roses are red (check), violets are blue (check)
My heart is dead (check), I'm such a fool (check)
Why did I fall for you? (fall for you)
I gave it all for you
Say you want my love and I believe you
But every look you give, it's like I'm see-through
Show me that you want me like I need you
And I need you, yeah
Say you want my love and I believe you
But every look you give, it's like I'm see-through
Show me that you want me like I need you
And I need you
Roses are red, violets are blue
My heart is dead, I'm such a fool (check)
Why did I fall for you?
I gave it all for you
Roses are red (check), violets are blue (check)
My heart is dead (check), I'm such a fool (check)
Why did I fall for you?
I gave it all for you
She let me on the loose
Love around my neck startin' to feel like the noose
All of the lies startin' to feel like the truth
At the end of the day, bitch, I'm lyin', flippin' you
I'm sick of bein' ridiculed
You playin' with my heart, you made me look like a fool
This a tragedy, it may end up on the news
I don't got no time for anyone, not these fools
No, no, oh, oh
At the end of the day, what are you gon' do?
Oh, at the end of the day I don't wanna be with you
Oh, at the end of the day I'ma still keep it true, true, true
The song "Roses" by Benny Blanco talks about heartbreak and the pain of being in love with someone who doesn't reciprocate the same love. The lyrics show the singerās emotional turmoil after falling in love with someone who isn't interested in them. The lyrics "Roses are red, violets are blue, My heart is dead, I'm such a fool, Why did I fall for you? I gave it all for you" reiterate the singer's realization that they have made a mistake by falling for someone who doesn't love them back. Later in the song, the singer talks about feeling lost and not knowing what to do without the person they love: "Feelin' lost, don't know what to do, But I just got some head in the back of my coupe, Still feelin' dead when I think about you, I can't do a damn thing when I'm without you".
The singer also touches on their frustration with the way they have been treated by their lover: "You playin' with my heart, you made me look like a fool, This a tragedy, it may end up on the news". This may indicate that the person the singer is in love with has been disloyal or has treated them poorly, resulting in heartbreak.
In the end, the song showcases the singer's willingness to move on and keep it real. They have accepted their heartbreak and are ready to face the reality that their love was not reciprocated. The song is a relatable portrayal of the pain of unrequited love.
