(WHAT IS THE COLOR OF NIGHT?)

BETREYAL!ENVY!LIES!DESTRUCTION!IGNORANCE!

(Tis Sanguine, my brother)

THE PROSEPOPIA OF DECEPTION IS LOVE....



Alone on the sidewalk, smoking a cigar

remembering all the good times in the back of my car

to think i let you get close, and to think i let you in

there i was holding my heart in my hand,let the screaming begin



i showed you compassion, the better side of me

all you took were my gifts and my money

you blamed me and left me alone

slit my throat and yelled "I loved you"...but you never answered the phone...



Roses aren't red forever,and the knuse grows tighter

you put a gentle touch into a rebellious fighter

tears of blood from my eyes,fed by your blasphemies and lies

the man you once loved I am no longer...



I'm half the man I used to be, now that you have gone

Hoped for the right, but only recieved the wrong

I now fear your shining smile

I drank deep from your comfort,but only tasted poison of the vial



Roses aren't red forever,and the knuse grows tighter

you put a gentle touch into a rebellious fighter

tears of blood from my eyes,fed by your blasphemies and lies

the man you once loved I am no longer...



happiness cloaked in misery

order shadowed by anarchy

truth cut down by slander

am I right or wrong? my question un-answered

is the hate neccessary?UNSURE!...UNSURE!!

YOU DO NOT SCARE ME!!THE WORD THE WORD...is.....no...





Roses aren't red forever,and the knuse grows tighter

you put a gentle touch into a rebellious fighter

tears of blood from my eyes,fed by your blasphemies and lies

the man you once loved I am no longer...



you had me at hello,then you said goodbye...

playing back everyhting over in my mind

no 6 feet have been dug for me, or i'd jump in to escape the pain

I reget nothing,release of ball and chain

Life to the seductive, death to the slain

Wrestlin with my demons, in the search for sanity

THIS SADLEY ENDS IT FOR YOU AND ME...



Roses arent red forever...

Roses arent red forever...

the spoils go to the better...

the booze helps me remember...

that Roses aint red...

ROSES aint red...



forever...
