Black Roses

I can see your eyes, staring into mine
But its a battlefield and you’re on the other side
You can throw your words, sharper than a knife
and leave me cold and another house on fire.
I lay low, lay low and watch the bridges burn
I lay low, lay low what more could I have done?
Now you only bring me black roses
and they crumble into dust when they’re held
Now you only bring me black roses, under your spell.
She told me twice all her good advice
but I couldn’t see I was clouded by your lies
Up in smoke, a vision she foretold
she said stay away cause that boy is a warning sign.
I lay low, lay low and watch the bridges burn
Now you only bring me black roses
and they crumble into dust when they’re held
Now you only bring me black roses, under your spell.
and I’m done trying to be the one
picking up the broken pieces
and I’m done trying to be the one who says 'I love you dear'
but I’m leaving, Now you only bring me black roses
and they crumble into dust when they’re held
now you only bring me black roses
but I’m not under your spell, I’m not under your spell
I’m not under your spell, I’m not under your spell
I’m not under your spell
mmmmmmm ooooooooooooo
oooo mmmm
