Blood Rose (Transfused) - Shiv-R

A fire sears the skin

A sea of endorphins

Don’t have the strength to run away

Dark thoughts and wicked dreams

Blood flows and beauty sings

Sharp thorns thy only sin

I hold you tight until I scar

Release is beckoning

Dead stem and rotting core

I’m not worth fighting for

My heart has atrophied

I’m nothing more than a failure

Blood rose, let it flow

Synthesise my overdose

Blood rose, let it flow

Chemical so beautiful

A start to believe in

Snow white in red revealed

To think I held you in my arms

How fast it melts away

A momentary sting

Romanticise this sin

What’s frosted over in the cold

Will beat with life again

Dead stem and rotting core

I’m not worth fighting for

My heart has atrophied

I’m nothing more than a failure

Blood rose, let it flow

Synthesise my overdose

Blood rose, let it flow

Chemical so beautiful
