Melvin Burch - Petunia [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Long distance; I don't know your intentions
Frank Ocean was blowing up while I was pacing in the kitchen
Letters were written; 3 pages worth of "I love yous"
I struggled to believe it;
Keeping secrets... in the open
But afraid to be open, chokin’ on sentimentality
Hoping you won't be mad at me, this specific predicament; I've never been in
I was dying to be passionate, but for the life of me, couldn't be intimate
I know, I'm so shy, Lake Michigan
Although, I told you why, so why mention it
Telling what I wanna do while showing you a different thing
Semi-hypocrite, holding your hand with my Listerine PocketPaks in the other
I'm a mother...less child
Covered by wild brutal honesty that's never in style
I'm the ugly truth; I lied and broke you up
Living with these permanent reminders, I owe you

Stuck with-

[Hook]
Tattoos… (Lookin’ at these)
Tattoos… (Feelin’ on these)
Tattoos… (Scrubbin’ at these)
Tattoos… (Can't believe I got these)
Tattoos… (Lookin’ at these)
Tattoos… (Feelin’ on these)
Tattoos… (Scrubbin’ at these)
Tattoos… (Can't believe I got these)

[Verse 2]
I’m a new slave… back in old chains
Think I'm over you, then you take a picture with no name
He doesn't deserve one, he's not me
Somebody stop me, I'm carried away, stressing an old flame
I feel like Spawn for PS One
You're my one ex
Funny, I'm still playing that old game
Behind this mask, the majority of sad gets hidden
Vitales get ridden, I'm sure you do it now
Meanwhile, I'm a diaper dandy, a baby
Bawlin’ on an empty court, like, please, pay me attention
Make me rich so I can forget this
Hungry for a closure cold-cut, getting cold-cocked by sucker punches from the past cause of some present development I can't stomach
Tryina' tough it out
Wake up every day, hoping it gets better
But I think what I never wanted's a part of me forever

Got this tattoo

You’re my tattoo
