Blood and Roses

[Verse] In a tower cold and dark Lived a princess with no heart Her eyes were filled with deadly spark Tales of blood made her an art [Verse 2] Knights would come and lose their heads Seeking roses—found her dread Whispers echoed through the halls Beware the one who caused their falls [Chorus] Blood and roses paint the night Gory tales in pale moonlight Princess fierce with strength so bright In her grip no wrong or right [Verse 3] In the courtyard where she roams Lies a bed of broken bones She collects each shattered dream Weaving threads of silken scream [Verse 4] From her lips A curse she'll cast Binding souls until the last In her kingdom none can flee Bound by ancient mystery [Chorus] Blood and roses paint the night Gory tales in pale moonlight Princess fierce with strength so bright In her grip no wrong or right
