Ten Black Roses

Life is like a boat in a bottle

Try to sail, you can't with no air

Day by day it only gets harder

Try to scream, but nobody cares

Through the glass you see the same faces

Hear their voices fade like a drum

When your life's a boat in a bottle

You're surrounded, drifting alone

Don't leave me now

Stay another day

With me

When you're sad and no one knows it

I'll send you black roses

When your heart's dark and frozen

I will send you black roses

Far away we wait for each other

I'm still on that road to nowhere

Kiss yourself for me in the mirror

Tie a black rose into your hair

Don't lose your faith

Share another night

With me

When you're sad and no one knows it

I'll send you black roses

When your heart's dark and frozen

I will send you black roses

Ten black roses

Ten black roses

Life is like a boat in a bottle

Try to sail, you can't with no air

Day by day it only gets harder

Try to scream, but nobody cares

When you're sad and no one knows it

I'll send you black roses

When your heart's dark and frozen

I will send you black roses

Ten black roses

Ten black roses
