Black Rose lyrics

[Intro]

Girl: Whatever happens in the end I don’t want to lose you as my friend

Guy: I promise I will never be your friend no matter what. Ever

[Verse 1]

It was December 24th when my chest caved in

And my everything called to say, “Let’s stay friends.”

Well, not quite, she used me beautifully

And with that empty tone she can sing my eulogy

And now I feel like I’m ugly once again

Her excuses start to fill my empty stomach to the brim

The room starts to spin and I cry till I dry-heave

I am a dying piece of her past

Just another band-aid, she needs to relax

Until she justifies my pain with a reason that lacks

See, I just wanted her to see herself like I do

Beautiful but she speaks her lies in haiku

So resurrect me, teach me where to go from here

And I will script to melody with meanings that are so sincere

Her frozen tears are streaming down the sculpted ice

Giving me the coldest bite every time I hold it tight

I’m masochistic when I love you till my heart bleeds

I’ll love you till I break when I’m running from your sharp teeth

I’m out of breath as I hang onto the broken glass

Picking up the pieces being strangled by a photograph

And she’s a black rose trapped in cracked roads that can’t grow

But still I’m lost in her splendor and I’m an idiot minus the savant

When I’m trying to move on but choose not to remember

[Interlude]

Guy: Wait a second. Where are you?

Girl: I’m here

Guy: I didn’t say you could come here

Girl: Can I come there?

[Verse 2]

I spent the midnight admiring your crooked edges

Juggling with history and times that we mistook as head trips

And look for exits from green eyes that haunt me

At these times of wanting to idolize your good intentions

It’s not a friendship, it’s a see-saw torment

I’m down on all fours for it and she’s all for it

I used to find a little piece of solace in your breathing pattern

Fair in war and love but you cautious when you reached the latter

Weren’t you? Love, do you believe in angels?

Or just an instability and using me to scapegoat

I held your flaws and the beauty that you mangled

And I told you that I loved them just so that you could see your halo

And when she lies I’m a casualty of that

And when she said she loved him I felt my galaxy collapse

I’m dancing to the heartbreak, while echoes make a point of it

I’ve never felt like this

I think about you in these nightmares and daydreams

Holding onto memories in times where we’d make peace

But you’re a pantomime, witch-hunt for truth

You have so many faces tell me which one is you

And you can be with him or anybody else

But they will never love you the way

That this somebody felt

But now it’s over cause he finally broke the surface

I just want to say

Goodbye and that I really hope it’s worth it

[Outro]

Girl: If we f**k I’m gonna feel like s**t tomorrow

Guy: That’s okay with me

Girl: I love you. I never hurt you on purpose

Guy: I don’t care
