Background
"Flowers" is a follow-up to Lauren Spencer-Smith's breakthrough hit "Fingers Crossed". Spencer-Smith called the song a "contrast" from the "Fingers Crossed", saying that "'Fingers Crossed' was angry. 'Flowers' is sad." The inspiration of the title came from her realization that her previous relationship was unhealthy when her current boyfriend did nice things for her, such as buying flowers for her, which made her cry; before that she only received flowers as an apology.[1] She also said of the song, "'Flowers' is about looking at a past experience and knowing I deserved more. I want people to be able to contemplate their own situations, and learn from them and heal if they need to. You aren't alone and it gets better."[2]
