1. A SINGLE SOLEMN ROSE

Give me some time I told you
means nothing to me now
I don’t know why I thought you
would ever come around

Out beyond the tracks
A moments hesitation
How could I not see
I was only 17!

Can we cut the back and forth, it doesn’t matter anymore
A gift for what its worth, alone, a single solemn rose
Before you go, know I don’t love you anymore
Be careful what you wish for

When I give you a chance you use it
Yeah, you make things clear
You beat it and abuse it
I can tell that you don’t care

Desperate with fear
Gripping tight to fantasy
I hate it when you’re here
Sitting next to me

Can we cut the back and forth, it doesn’t matter anymore
A gift for what its worth, alone, a single solemn rose
Before you go, know I don’t love you anymore
Be careful what you wish for, just like me!

Just a waste of time
And I think you knew
But I’ll be fine
Just like you
