Black Roses 04:37
Black Roses I see your reflection in the still water Why have you come back to haunt me Here and now Clutching my chest As the pain returns The memory of you like salt on an open wound Black roses why do you prick me with your crown My spirit lying broken, upon the hallowed ground Black roses why do you crown me with your thorns I have given all I can I cannot give you anymore I have cried out all my tears My eyes are dry There is nothing left for you my dear I bled myself for you Inside my panic room The crimson of my love spilled on the floor like wine Black roses why do you prick me with your crown My spirit lying broken, upon the hallowed ground Black roses why do you crown me with your thorns I have given all I can I cannot give you anymore You promised me forever, but forever came too soon You set my heart on fire and left me to burn but I pulled my heart from the embers, a woman scorned Black roses why do you prick me with your crown My spirit lying broken, upon the hallowed ground Black roses why do you crown me with your thorns I have given all I can I cannot give you anymore No more No more No more

Until You Come Around Let me tell you a secret One I’m trying to hide I know you watch me Now don’t you lie You feel the connection Feel it in your soul You’re dieing to tell me What I already know I’ll be standing here until the Earth stops spinning around I’ll be holding my breath till the stars all fall to the ground Baby, I’ll be here... ...Until you come around You want to touch me I want that too I promise I won’t resist I give myself to you I’ll be standing here until the Earth stops spinning around I’ll be holding my breath till the stars all fall to the ground Baby, I’ll be here... ...Until you come around Baby I never wanted anything more than this Just that look in your eye is giving me elemental bliss So why don’t you call me Baby give me a sign A chemical notion That I’m not wasting my time I’ll be standing here until the Earth stops spinning around I’ll be holding my breath till the stars all fall to the ground Baby, I’ll be here... ...Until you come around

Stay 04:26
Stay In the stillness of the evening Our bodies lay entwined The musk of our love still lingers in the air Is there something on your mind? You ask me if I love you I don't want to say You're trying so hard to be patient I just don't feel that way Stay with me now I don't want you to go Stay with me darling I don't want to be alone Cause when the sun comes up tomorrow You know I'll have to go You know I'd do anything for you Kill a hundred men or more but I'm so afraid to let you in I don't want to open up that door Stay with me now I don't want you to go Stay with me darling I don't want to be alone Cause when the sun comes up tomorrow You know I'll have to go Stay with me now I don't want you to go Stay with me darling I don't want to be alone Cause when the sun comes up tomorrow You know I'll have to go

You Rescued Me I was adrift for endless days In my lifeboat at the mercy of the sea Tossed around like an empty shell I was desperate for a change After what seemed like an eternity I washed up on your shore You picked me up and you brushed the sand off You picked me up and took me home You rescued me You rescued me In my darkest hour You're the only light I'll ever need You rescued me... In the safety of your arms I finally felt like I was on the mend You lifted me up and gave me all of your love Without you where would I be? You rescued me You rescued me In my darkest hour You're the only light I'll ever need You rescued me... You lift me up, you fill me up You give me all of your love You lift me up, you fill me up You give me all of your love You rescued me You rescued me In my darkest hour You're the only light I'll ever need You rescued me... I was adrift for endless days I was desperate for a change

Alone 03:31
Alone When I wake up from dreaming And I feel so alone My heart aches to remember That I once called you home You came around and you shattered me Left my heart in a million pieces Now I'm alone So alone Now my days run on empty And my love has gone cold All I ever really wanted Was to have and to hold You came around and you shattered me Left my heart in a million pieces Now I'm alone So alone I took all your words and I swallowed them whole How could I have been so blind You never loved me at all You came around and you shattered me Left my heart in a million pieces Now I'm alone So alone Alone Alone
