William Cashion - Through the Roses lyrics

Catch me laughing Catch me drinking past the dawn Catch me singing Catch me beaming—open armed Don't watch me weeping Don't watch me weep into my palms Don't watch me leaving, I'll be gone Kiss me mother, Kiss me father Fore I go Don't want to leave you But I'm sorry... I can't hold And you see me, through the roses Through the lights and the smoke and the screen I'm no one better I'm no better than you and I'm scared Just searching for truth It's not easy, just being human And the lights and the smoke and the screens Don't make it better I'm no stronger than you and I'm scared I don't know what to do I'm scared That I can't pull through In the weak of my soul The temptation to look inside my wrist—it grows The cut is waiting The cut is waxing in its hold The clutch of nothing The curse of wanting Takes me whole And you see me, through the roses Through the lights and the smoke and the screen I'm no one better I'm no better than you and I'm scared Just searching for truth It's not easy, just being human And the lights and the smoke and the screens Don't make it better I'm no stronger than you and I'm scared I don't know what to do I'm scared But we can pull through—together Together We can pull through
