Lay me with the roses

Is this real,

The feeling i feel.

Or is it a dream,

To my brain it seems.

When i met you all those years ago

You promised you'd love me and never let me go.

Now it seem you've gone away,

to never come back another day.

Love was hopeless and blind,

But i was fine.

in fact...

I welcomed that.

to see what others see

and not the hopeless world laid before me.

When i lost you my heart ripped in two

A half for me and a half for you.

My body died that day

Beside the roses is where i lay

But now i sleep under them

A dream of eternal REM

I await my prince's return

A kiss to wake me from the grave.

Until then my lips i will save

If the mud won't set me free

Lay with me for eternity
