It seems these roses hold all the weight now

Strange behavior comes from the familiar face

Anew in the mirror stained, it’s selling fast

These feelings are dull and old

A slight from trusted hands

Comfort in a yelp full of clinching words

Spewing thoughts onto pavement

My liquid brain understands

There’s a lesson learned

A moment’s loss of words in flesh

You come alive in a lie

You come alive in a vice

You come alive in a lie

You come alive in a vice

It seems these roses hold all the weight now

All the weight now, all the weight now

It seems these roses hold all the weight now

All the weight now, all the weight now

This conversation reminds me time’s moved on

But a heart is not mourning this sense of loss

We exist in uncertainty, how lovely, it all comes crashing

You come alive in a lie

You come alive in a vice

You come alive in a lie

You come alive in a vice

You come alive in a lie

You come alive in a vice

You come alive in a lie

You come alive in a vice
