The eternal rose dies
In the lips of the ones
Who swore to keep her alive.
The resplendent red is swallowed
By the madness of a heart,
You couldn't know
This would be so bad.

I've fought with all
The soul that's left,
With heart and guts,
I've wasted all my nights
Battling against this feeling.
And after all,
I'm not the enemy.
You are.

You never stop considering heights
And the full moon lights up the old wish,
I've felt so good
I've made a home of your arms.
You were what stood still
When the whole world collapsed.

The moon is no bigger liar
Than all of us,
And no matter how bright
It's only up at night
When it's dark.
The monster crawls the walls,
And sleeps in my bed.

The rose died
And we're the petals,
left.
