Dark Roses and Dreams
I threw dark roses into the sea One for you and another for me
The road we trod upon was hell Our destination? Well who can tell?
Those roses they float upon the waves We’ll never sit easy in different graves
Cos you and me is forever Time and death will never sever
But that doesn’t mean you belong to me No one should cage what should be free
Petals drift down to abyssal floor Where in decay they become something more
Part of several bigger tales Love is triumph even when it fails
Dark roses washed on the shore We are whole for now and ever more
I will stand by your side Together we shall have no need to hide
Little roses and stranger dreams Love mixes with such gothic themes
Two little roses and two little dreams No not those suicidal love packed memes
Dark little roses deep in hue One is for me and one is for you
A future spun upon the wheel That cuts and bits and makes you feel
Just as the thorn of the rose A blood drip for lips is how this one goes
I threw the roses into the sea A sacrifice for a little you and a littlier me
