Flyleaf - Blue Roses lyrics
[Flyleaf - Blue Roses lyrics]
You said "come on
Let's go down that yellow brick road"
But that path was primrose and led
Back to black and white and now I know
Since that day you chose to let me know
My hearts been tangled with thorns
That choke the light
Oh, here I go
Collecting roses to me from you
Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound
Oh, now I stop and smell
The roses when they’re blue
Gonna find my way
Break the lock on the emerald city gates
It could be simple, but we’re only half-awake
I feel the pain set in when I
Think of you and grip the stems
I feel my head begin to spin, I'm not alright
Oh, here I go
Collecting roses to me from you
Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound
Oh, now I stop and smell
The roses when they’re blue
When they’re blue
Let go of the stems, free to bloom again
Let go of the stems, free to bloom again
Here I go, collecting roses to me from you
Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound
Oh, now I stop and smell
The roses when they’re blue
(Stop, stop, stop)
Let go of the stems, free to bloom again
Free to bloom again when they're blue
Let's go down that yellow brick road"
But that path was primrose and led
Back to black and white and now I know
Since that day you chose to let me know
My hearts been tangled with thorns
That choke the light
Oh, here I go
Collecting roses to me from you
Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound
Oh, now I stop and smell
The roses when they’re blue
Gonna find my way
Break the lock on the emerald city gates
It could be simple, but we’re only half-awake
I feel the pain set in when I
Think of you and grip the stems
I feel my head begin to spin, I'm not alright
Oh, here I go
Collecting roses to me from you
Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound
Oh, now I stop and smell
The roses when they’re blue
When they’re blue
Let go of the stems, free to bloom again
Let go of the stems, free to bloom again
Here I go, collecting roses to me from you
Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound
Oh, now I stop and smell
The roses when they’re blue
(Stop, stop, stop)
Let go of the stems, free to bloom again
Free to bloom again when they're blue
