Saywecanfly - Between The Roses lyrics

If you ever feel like I did when you slip between the cracks Maybe then you’ll see how nothing stays in tact And when my life is over maybe you can understand That I planned everything, but nothing went as planned It’s nothing personal, I just want you to know I tried to understand You tortured me with the silence in your throat And you tortured me with the stillness in your bones You kicked the chair from underneath my feet You must have seen the noose made out of roses that I wore to guarantee That you couldn’t go, that you wouldn’t leave me all alone Cause if you did, you’d see my body hanging just above the floor Beside a note, to tell the world how terrible it was To fall in love with someone capable of cutting out my tongue, Of cutting out my, of cutting out my tongue So did you just forget, or do you really not remember The bullets that we took so we could stay alive forever And did you just forget, or do you really not remember The poison that we drank, so that at least we’d die together It’s comforting to fall asleep alone And it’s comforting because it’s all I’ve ever known If I should die before I wake I pray to God my soul will find a peaceful place Between the roses, between the roses Because the earth is only pretty for so long Between the roses, between the roses You were the only one I’ll trust to sing along To sing between the roses, sing my song So did you just forget, or do you really not remember The bullets that we took so we could stay alive forever And did you just forget, or do you really not remember The poison that we drank, so that at least we’d die together As the sun went down, our hearts were heavy We knew it was time, but I was not ready To let you go, to say goodbye To a love I thought would never die You were quiet as hell and you looked so sad As I kissed your lips with my regrets In hopes that maybe we’d pretend Forever never had to end La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la la la la That maybe we'd pretend Our hope had died, but our love’s not dead So grab your black umbrella and make your way down to the graveyard Where you’ll find the tree to which I tied this rope And nothing is for certain, that’s the only thing I know But I’m certain that it’s time for me to go It’s nothing personal, it simply hurts to know That I will be alone
