Roses Are Red Failing
i feel this pressure weighing down
weighing down on me
i can't complete a thought
it's hard to breathe
it keeps me awake
i'm walking fearfully through every day
through every place
but i just cannot turn away
failing in conversation
but i wanted you to show me
i wanted just to know me like you do
failing in conversation
but i'm never giving in
can you take away this pain
i'm living in?
i feel this silence raining down
raining down on me
all my weaknesses for you to see
i've lost track of days
i'm right back where i started from
face to face with what i've become
but i just cannot turn away
