PART I
Red like roses fills my dreams and brings me to the place you rest
White is cold and always yearning burdened by a royal test
Black the beast descends from shadows
Yellow beauty burns gold

PART II
I couldn't take it, couldn't stand another minute;
Couldn't bear another day without you in it.
All of the joy that I had known for all my life
Was stripped away from me the minute that you died.

To have you in my life was all I ever wanted,
But now without you I'm a soul forever haunted.
Can't help but feel that I had taken you for granted;
No way in Hell that I can ever comprehend this.

I wasn't dreaming when they told me you were gone,
I was wide awake and feeling that they had to be wrong.
How could you leave me when you swore that you would stay?
Now I'm trapped inside a nightmare every single f'ing day.

It's like a movie, but there's not a happy ending;
Every scene fades black, and there's no pretending.
This little fairy tale doesn't seem to end well,
There's no knight in shining armor who will wake me from the spell.

I know you didn't plan this;
You tried to do what's right.
But in the middle of this madness,
I'm the one you left to win this fight.

Red like roses
Fills my head with dreams and finds me
Always closer
To the emptiness and sadness
That has come to take the place of you.
