Flowered Guts
FLØRE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Two hearts beating, beating, indeed
I can see the little scar right on your chest
You put your shirt on, shirt on, crack your neck
You are beautifully broken
A lovable mistake
Your inked skin tastes like dust butYou're my oxygen
You planted flowers in my lungs
And settled roots in my inner trunk
You made my heart blooming, boy
As well as my mind
You've made a garden, garden of mine
Ooh
Ooh
It's hard to walk with vines around my feet
The buds on my lashes, lashes, make it hard to see
You leave me in the morning you awoke
A crooked backbone, backbone, making its way home
You are a beautiful disaster
A lovable mistake
But you made my thoughts grow, darling
Became my oxygen
You planted flowers in my lungs
And settled roots in my inner trunk
You made my heart blooming, boy
As well as my mind
You've made a garden, garden of mine
(Garden of mine)
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The first verse of FLØRE's "Flowered Guts" begins with a vivid imagery of raindrops dripping on bare feet, which sets the tone for the emotions that the song is conveying. The two hearts beating reflect the intimacy of the relationship between the two people in the song, despite the imperfection and the presence of a scar on the chest. The singer notes that the other person puts their shirt on and cracks their neck, which could signify the casualness of their relationship, and also perhaps the attempt to hide their imperfections or vulnerability.
The second verse continues the theme of these two people who are "beautifully broken" and "lovable mistakes". They may not be perfect, but they're perfect for each other. The other person's inked skin tastes like dust, which is a raw and earthy description that suggests the other's past experiences and pain. Despite that, the person is the singer's "oxygen"; they're necessary for her mere existence. The metaphor of planting "flowers in [her] lungs" and "settling roots" in her "inner trunk" reflects the depth to which the other person has impacted her life; they've awakened her heart and made her mind flourish. The garden that they've created together is a place of beauty and growth.
Overall, "Flowered Guts" is a song about an imperfect relationship that is still perfect in its own way. The two people involved may have their scars and issues, but they are each other's source of growth and sustenance. The garden metaphor ties together the idea of self-discovery and flourishing in the midst of imperfection.
