I see myself in the fading flowers That rest beneath the distant sun Those whose growth has been cut short By being surrounded by others' painful thorns I see myself in their broken leaves And grayish colors I see myself in their silent griefs And all their life-long sorrows

No Roses, Please
I see myself in the fading flowers That rest beneath the distant sun Those whose growth has been cut short By being surrounded by others' painful thorns I see myself in their broken leaves And grayish colors I see myself in their silent griefs And all their life-long sorrows
