Rose Givers
He came knocking at the door, I don't want to let you in but I do
There knockin ever so gently waiting for me to answer
You hold the same roses to conceal the past pleasures
Whispering in my ear stiring up hidden desire, here I go again letting you in
It's Deja vu wanting my attention but deceving my heart and emotions
Once the roses die your far away until I try to run away and there you are
Break the cycle, break the desire, burn the roses and never return.
How is it that ths demon I can't escape.
Give me your word and trust you say...holding innocent feelings for your torture.
Now I've learned to ignore the roses; temptations have been outworn
But you steadily knock, knock on other's doors with the same roses
Slowly learning roses aint shit but heartbreak colored in red dressed with a pretty bow
To the rose givers, I'm hip and I know
