Mertensia

Mertensia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Boraginaceae. They are perennial herbaceous plants with blue or sometimes white flowers that open from pink-tinged buds. Such a change in flower color is common in Boraginaceae and is caused by an increase of pH in the flower tissue. Mertensia is one of several plants that are commonly called "bluebell". In spite of their common name, the flowers are usually salverform (trumpet-shaped) rather than campanulate (bell-shaped). Mertensia is native to most of North America and to a large part of Asia from western China to northeastern Russia. Its center of diversity is in the Rocky Mountains. Mertensia is mostly restricted to alpine, subalpine, and montane habitats. more »

Why do your words feel empty
When you promise theres weight behind them

And why are mine much too heavy
To try and open and see what's behind when

I can promise you the world and deliver
I can give you my lungs, heart and liver
But when its all said and done
How is it never enough for you

I'll jump right into the fire
But I can't promise I won't burn or tire
I can do it I won't hesitate
Cause I would do whatever it takes

I promise you the world and deliver
I can give you my lungs, heart and liver
But when its all said and done
You said it's all just too much for you

So take back your roses and take back your thorns
I thought you were worth it but I guess I was wrong

Cause when you're on my mind, I'm just an afterthought
After it all guess I wasn't enough for more

Take back your smiles and take back your pain
I'm not too sure if I'd do it again

Cause I'd do it all and wouldn't do the same for me
I did it all but you didn't do the same for me

Now back from nothing I'll rise I can draw back
And you won't be wise to the pain you caused and

I'll say goodbye without saying a word
You just won't notice so you won't be hurt

Take back your roses and all their sharp thorns
Cause I don't need flowers from you anymore

Keep on walking the pathway
Knowing well I won't follow behind and
Let life run on it's course
But don't think I can be by your side when

I promised the world and delivered
I gave you my bones, my lungs, heart and liver
But when its all said and done
You said it's all just too much

Oh love when it's said and done
How am I still not enough for you
