Black Roses


Black roses on the table

Black roses on the floor

Black roses in his hands

 Black roses out the door

Black roses on her dresser

Black roses on the ground

Black roses watered with tears

Black roses all around

Black roses in a vase

Black roses in the hall

Black roses in the kitchen

Black roses on the wall

A black rose for a lover

A black rose for a friend

A black rose for soul

A black rose means the end

Dead roses on the table

Dead roses on the floor

Dead roses in his hands

Dead roses out the door

Dead roses on her dresser

Dead roses on the ground

Dead roses watered with tears

Dead roses all around

Dead roses in a vase

Dead roses in the hall

Dead roses in the kitchen

Dead roses on the wall

A dead rose for his love

A dead rose for his world

A dead rose falling now

A dead rose for this girl

Red roses on the table

Red roses on the floor

Red roses on the bed side

Red roses through the door

Red roses for new love

Red roses for new life

Red roses for him

Red roses bring her strife

A red rose he’ll give her

A red rose that falls from her grasp

A red rose that’s killed her

A red rose never lasts
