One For The Rose

I saw a girl in my apartment
That I didn’t know was there
With a rose inside her hands
She’s got diamonds in her hair
Oh my God I think she’s listening
But she doesn’t seem to care
As I scream at her
She whispers that she’s getting out of here

And I’ve been searching for this girl for days
Now I know I’ve only got myself to blame

When you take
Take away the sweet words that you say
I’m left
Left lying wide awake
Between the sorries and goodbyes
The bricks of white lies
Our castle couldn’t stand
Hope you’ll find
Find what’ll make you stay another day

I lost the game before it started
Well this isn’t even fair
When I let go of her hands
She had caught me in despair
I just hope to God she listens
When I tell her that I care
As I scream at her
She whispers that she’s getting out of here

And I’ve been searching for this girl for days
Now I know I’ve only got myself to blame

When you take
Take away the sweet words that you say
I’m left
Left lying wide awake
Between the sorries and goodbyes
The bricks of white lies
Our castle couldn’t stand
Hope you’ll find
Find what’ll make you stay another day

Climb back out
Burnt and bruised
I keep falling faster
Falling after you
These nights are hard
Is this how you choose
Choose to break me down

When you take
Take away the sweet words that you say
I’m left
Left lying wide awake
Between the sorries and goodbyes
The bricks of white lies
Our castle couldn’t stand
Hope you’ll find
Find what’ll make you stay another day
