you've seen friends come and go
you've seen people i've never known
you've seen us at our highs and at our lows
you've seen hot summer days and falling snow

you were there during lovers coil
and you sat by through lovers turmoil
and despite the lack of soil
you stayed alive and so loyal

you will never wilt
and your petals never fall
and i will never know who built
all these flowers on the wall
