Clare Bowen Black Roses
I can see your eyes staring into mine
But it's a battlefield, and I'm on the other side
You can throw your words sharper than a knife
And leave me cold in another house on fire
I lay low, lay low
And watch the bridges burn
I lay low, lay low
What more could I have done
Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble into dust when they're held
Now you only bring me black roses
Under your spell
She told me twice all of her good advice
But I couldn't see, I was clouded by your lies
Up in smoke, a vision she foretold
She said stay away because that boy's a warning sign
I lay low, lay
And watch the bridges burn
Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble into dust when they're held
Now you only bring me black roses
Under your spell
And I'm done being the one
Trying to pick up the broken pieces
And I'm done being the one
Who says, "I love you, dear, but I'm leaving"
Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble into dust when they're held
Now you only bring me black roses
But I'm not under your spell
I'm not under your spell (x4)
