Lyrics
Roses
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes you want to fade away, sometimes you want it all
Sometimes you need to slow things down, bring it to a crawl
There's no one coming after you, there's no one at the door
Sometimes you just don't understand the point of it all
If I could set the world on fire you'd be the only one to cry
But I still need to hear you say you'll lay roses on my grave
Turn your face into the wind and no one will hear you cry
Reality comes crashing in, begging for a fight
There's no one hiding in the walls, no one to look out for
All accounts are overdrawn, it's time to step aside
If I could set the world on fire you'd be the only one to cry
But I still need to hear you say you'll lay roses on my grave
If I could shut this whole thing
Down, hold my breath, don't make a sound
But I'd still need to hear you say you'll lay roses on my grave
If I could set the world on fire you'd be the only one to cry
But I still need to hear you say you'll lay roses on my grave
If I could shut this whole thing
Down, hold my breath, don't make a sound
But I'd still need to hear you say you'll lay roses on my grave
