In a bouquet of Roses
the prettiest always has the thorn
Because of one flower
my skin's fine
but my soul is torn
Sooner of Later
the petals fall apart
just like my heart
thin my blood
In a Bouquet of Roses
the prettiest always has the thorn
Because of one flower
my skin's fine
but my soul is torn
Sooner or Later the petals fall apart
, just like my heart
thin my blood
No one sees the difference
No one notices a change
A square heart's circumference
a calendar rearranged
your birthday is now just another day
the day we met
, is somewhere behind yesterday
why doesn't someone just say
stop
stop and play
A fire burns deep in you
it freezes me from a distance
please darling you're burning
Let me be of assistance
That raging inferno
engulfed even the sea
burned everything to ashes
except for one tree
No one sees the difference
No one notices a change
A square heart's circumference
a calendar rearranged
your birthday is now just another day
the day we met,
is somewhere behind yesterday
why doesn't someone just say
stop
stop and play
Carved on rotten bark
in a square heart
says "me and you forever"
"we'll be together, we'll get through anything"
But now I know
what kind of fire
can burn down even that peaceful tree
it's only a fire started by me.
