lyrics

designed to speak without words,
given by one who speaks in tongues
symbol of affection
received by those who deserve none

subject to the curse
of superficial emptiness
for the meaning lies within
blood red petals and a crush

don’t mind the rose i gave you
no matter what i do
my effort’s worthless
and i don’t know why i want you to
say it hurts

is it just coincidence,
sadistic gift of circumstance?
downward spiral of hail
entwines the bad with the worse

don’t mind the rose i gave you
no matter what i do
my effort’s worthless
and i know now why i want you to
say it hurts...

maybe you should be the one
left to bleed in a bath of thorns
emblematic meanings?
undone!
