Cherry Ghost - Roses lyrics

Blind me with distraction Build a frontier 'cross the void All tomorrow been destroyed, in a breath I moved out to the country And I saw the scenery shake As a summer parade meets its d**h And God's a**a**ins rode back into town And paved their way upon the cold ground Roses help me to pretend Blushing brides and cosmonauts Don't meet their bitter end Give me grace, oh Mother I have rumbled quite a feast Traced the footsteps of a priest in the snow But in my mind's picture Of every face I've ever loved Travel lightly s** their blood before they go And God's a**a**ins rode back into town And paved their way upon the cold ground Roses help me to pretend Blushing brides and cosmonauts Don't meet their bitter end Roses, roses, cannot do this any more
