Lyrics
Ten Black 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.
Life is like a boat in a bottle
Try to sail, you can't with no air
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares
Through the glass you see the same faces
Hear the voices fade like a drum
When your life's a boat in a bottle
You're surrounded, drifting alone
Don't leave me now
Stay another day with me
When you're sad and no one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart is dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses
Far away we wait for each other
I'm still on that road to nowhere
Kiss yourself for me in the mirror
Tie a black rose into your hair
Don't lose your faith
Share another night with me
When you're sad and no one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart is dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses
Ten black roses
Ten black roses
Life is like a boat in a bottle
Try to sail, you can't with no air
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares
When you're sad and no one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart is dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses
Ten black roses
Ten black roses
