"A Bleeding Rose," A LOVE SONG

VERSE:

So many empty promises.

So many meaningless words. 

It was like I never heard you. 

I thought that you were certain.

Now there's a trail of broken pieces, 

And I don't know where it's leading. 

CHORUS:                     

My heart is a bleeding rose,

Pouring out it in anguish, 

Pain that nobody knows.

My heart is a bleeding rose.

For all the times you loved me,

Now you left me in the cold.

Trampled beneath your sole.

My heart is a bleeding rose.                               

 

VERSE:

The blood runs down the alley,

And drips into the nearby stream.

The water became so bitter.

So many things you didn’t consider.

Now the blue hue is running red,

Wanted love but got heartbreak instead.          

            

CHORUS:                     

My heart is a bleeding rose,

Pouring out it in anguish, 

Pain that nobody knows.

My heart is a bleeding rose.

For all the times you loved me,

Now you left me in the cold.

Trampled beneath your sole.

My heart is a bleeding rose.       

 

BRIDGE:

At least you’re in the past,

And the lies are gone at last.

Unless a rose falls to the ground,

How can new life ever be found? 

CHORUS:                     

My heart is a bleeding rose,

Pouring out it in anguish, 

Pain that nobody knows.

My heart is a bleeding rose.

For all the times you loved me,

Now you left me in the cold.

Trampled beneath your sole.

My heart is a bleeding rose.       

 

VAMP:              

My heart is a bleeding rose.

My heart is a bleeding rose.
