Preserved Roses

1. Preserved Roses

Preserved Roses

(chorus)

being pressed under every brief and fleeting dream

the flower becomes a piece of eternity

the deception pains the heart gradually

it will present itself to you

(the loneliness of a caged life)

preserved rose

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

you only need to take what flows forth

(from deep within)

and change it into a human form

(everything is "too chillingly cold" you said)

then do not

(unclasp your fingers from mine)

whether in light or darkness mode

(don't be afraid the morning dread won't come)

we'll repeat only brilliance

connect to me at your side

(then be the ending)

once again and once more

(far from the beginning)

I'll let you know when it's over

(I pray never)

(chorus)

being pressed under every brief and fleeting dream

the flower becomes a piece of eternity

the deception ever so painfully

the thorns cut deeply into the world that rejects it

if you wish, I will captivate you

so don't fade into the distance and disappear

I'll greet you with open arms

the new breaths of life

(of the tomorrow that you can see)

don't let go of me

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

(looking for a heat that will thaw the petals out)

for love

(my feelings are so blind)

while I am imprisoned by the sins

(of doubting)

the artificial smiles

I made the decision to go before I'm stained

(in the water that will spill and disperse before long)

if you can see what your heart's reflected

in exchange for my singing

(that leads to the ending)

your hurts what I'm seeing

(sayonara)

 can you just once tell the truth?

(stuck in past musings)

(chorus)

if you can believe in the illusion

the is dyed in a violent color

displaying the wound for all to see

perhaps you can surpass even truth

stop the ever-flowing passage of time

without even knowing the method to decay

those hands of yours that spilled blood

it will present itself to you

(the loneliness of a caged life)

I wish too

(end chorus)

(chorus)

being pressed under every brief and fleeting dream

the flower becomes a piece of eternity

the deception ever so painfully

the thorns cut deeply into the world that rejects it

if you wish, I will captivate you

so don't fade into the distance and disappear

I'll greet you with open arms

the new breaths of life

(of the tomorrow that you can see)

don't let go of me

(end chorus)
