POTF - Roses
[00:10.51] I've walked the distance
[00:11.84] I paid my dues and I tried to have a go at what I thought
[00:15.30] I knew was real, held no appeal
[00:19.81] I've been to places, I've seen the tidings
[00:22.46] I bought a book of rules for every coin that I could steal
[00:28.84] And so I came to gaze upon the stars, when they were yet unborn
[00:38.40] And consequently, tear at my old scars, and the mask I had outworn
[00:48.50] So when I'm crying alone
[00:53.01] Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[00:57.80] Grow me a garden of roses
[01:02.57] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[01:07.10] Teach me to speak with their voices
[01:11.87] Show me the way and I'll try again
[01:26.21] I've heard the rumors, started fires
[01:28.87] I sowed a sordid lot of plays for keeps for what I need
[01:33.38] Behold the demons that I freed
[01:35.77] I've tried my best at wearing the hard hat
[01:38.45] But healing doesn't seem to happen when you hide away the seed
[01:44.82] And so I came across the medicine man, and he showed me what I'd forlorn
[01:54.15] For if I'm stayed it happens by my own hand, and my own voice full of scorn
[02:04.24] So when I'm crying alone
[02:09.02] Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[02:13.80] Grow me a garden of roses
[02:18.57] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[02:23.35] Teach me to speak with their voices
[02:28.13] Show me the way and I'll try again
[02:33.19] Without you I'm nothing at all
[02:37.69] And life has the face of a morbid game
[02:42.74] With you nothing is impossible
[02:47.25] It all seems to fit the frame
[02:54.70] So when I'm crying alone
[02:58.69] Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone
[03:03.72] Grow me a garden of roses
[03:08.51] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[03:13.30] Teach me to speak with their voices
[03:18.07] Show me the way and I'll try again
[03:22.59] Grow me a garden of roses
[03:27.36] Paint me the colors of sky and rain
[03:32.15] Teach me to speak with their voices
[03:36.66] Show me the way and I'll try again
