Roses
Juice WRLD Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ay, ay, uh

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)
Why did I fall for you?
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

Overall Meaning

The song "Roses" by Juice WRLD and benny blanco featuring Brendon Urie is a reflection on a failed relationship. The opening lyrics set up the scene with "Roses are red, violets are blue, my heart is dead, I'm such a fool, why did I fall for you?" This shows the singer's initial thoughts on their relationship and their own naivete. The chorus repeats this sentiment, emphasizing the singer's regret and pain over falling for someone who may not have truly loved them back.


The verses explore the singer's complicated emotions after the breakup. They feel lost and don't know what to do, but also find comfort in a physical connection. They try to distract themselves with drugs and hookups but still can't shake the feeling of heartbreak when they think about their ex. The line "You gave me your heart, it was made of plastic" implies that the relationship was built on false promises or lies. Despite this, the singer still gave everything they had for the relationship, which only adds to their feelings of foolishness.


Overall, "Roses" is a raw and introspective song about the pain of a failed romance and the self-doubt that follows. It speaks to the universal experience of falling for someone who may not be good for us and the struggle to move on.

Regardless, I will always be honest with you
