Black R

[instrumental] [instrumental] [instrumental] [Verse 1]: Each day, the black rose fades In her chamber of velvet red A shadow grows, a silent plea In crimson solitude, she's wed [instrumental] [Bridge]: In her abstract garden's sprawl Thorns sharp, amidst the unnatural Her captive bloom in twilight's thrall [instrumental] [Chorus]: Oh black rose, shed your spines They serve you not, as beauty pines Your petals wilt in sorrow's brine [instrumental] [Verse 2]: Each day, the black rose fades In her chamber of velvet red A shadow grows, a silent plea In crimson solitude, she's wed [Outro]: It's you alone who holds the key To step beyond, to set you free.
