Withered Flowers
By AJ Lindsey

I always was a mama’s boy I always gave my thanks
it never took too much to get me to say the grace
my tennis shoes were always tied I always held the door
but I can’t find that part of me anymore
would you find me if I wandered in a field of withered flowers
if I thought that they were getting close to bloom
I don’t trust in my perception what I had is now forgotten
when you took the last good part of me
you took the last good part of me
I was daddy’s little girl that’s what he used to say
I knew that he was proud of me he told me every day
I cared for you was there for you don’t know what that was for
cause I can’t find that part of me anymore
would you find me if I wandered in a field of withered flowers
if I thought that they were getting close to bloom
I don’t trust in my perception what I had is now forgotten
when you took the last good part of me
you took the last good part of me
I can’t seem to find the man that I once used to be
can you feel the weight of that part you took from me
now I wander through my days hopeless remembering
who I am meant to be
would you find me if I wandered in a field of withered flowers
if I thought that they were getting close to bloom
I don’t trust in my perception what I had is now forgotten
when you took the last good part of me
you took the last good part of me
