[Chorus]
I can't smell the flowers
Felt empty now for hours
Lost my powers
Now I can't smell the flowers
I'm sick of all these towers
Think I done too many downers

[Verse 1]
Hard to see the value in these half-hearted encounters
Can't deal with the truth so we just change the world around us
To feel and smell just like we want it to
Fuck what we're meant to do
Can't hang 'round, be no fool
Wastin' time just getting high

[Pre-Chorus]
Getting high to get by
Clear my mind, yeah, blue skies
All this time, I've been flying
From up here

[Chorus]
I can't smell the flowers
Felt empty now for hours
Lost my powers
I can't smell the flowers
And I'm sick of all these towers
Done too many downers
[Verse 2]
Stuck inside a space I have created
For myself to be 'round no one else
I'm workin' on my spells to get me out of here
Oh, yeah, your words are wisdom
Oh, yeah, you keep on givin'
But now there's no forgivin'
And, yeah, I'm overthinkin'
Some days, I am just sinkin'
Static, nah, I ain't driven
Talkin', but I ain't listenin'

[Chorus]
I can't smell the flowers
Felt empty now for hours
Lost my powers
I can't smell the flowers
And I'm sick of all these towers
Done too many downers

[Verse 3]
I can't smell the flowers
Been hangin' out for hours, where's my powers?
And I'm sick of all these towers towerin' over me
Feelin' fuckin' lonely
Like no one even knows me
Not even my own homies
[Pre-Chorus]
Getting high (Getting high)
To get by (To get by)
Clear my mind (Clear my mind)
Yeah, blue skies (Yeah, blue skies)
All this time (All this time)
I've been flying (I've been flying)
From up here (From up here)

[Chorus]
I can't smell the flowers
Felt empty now for hours
Lost my powers
I can't smell the flowers
I'm sick of all these towers
Too many dow-downers
I can't smell the flowers
Felt empty now for hours
Lost my powers
I can't smell the flowers
I'm sick of all these towers
Too many dow-downers
