Inside the city of steel and sorrow Where the Sun forgot to rise Amidst the ruins and the phantoms I found a rose that defied the lies
Where the Sun forgot to rise The roots run deep into the ground Drenched in life's relentless storms Bearing thorns it won't conform Transcending through neon light
If I give you this rose Trading my life for my words I wither away To forge a new day If you take this rose Through the ashes and the rain My sacrifice remains If you take this rose
It's a sad life A beautiful life
Silent streets a world gone cold Electric tears it won't conform Thorns they whisper I'm not broken
If I give you this rose Trading my life for my words When I wither away To forge a new day If you take this rose Through the ashes and the rain My sacrifice remains If you take this rose
In the darkness will you take my rose Will your promises like petals fall In the darkness will you this take my rose
If I give you this rose If I give you this rose I wither wither away To forge a new day If you take this rose Through the ashes and the rain My sacrifice remains If you take this rose
Will you fight for me Will you fight for me To forge a new day If you take this rose If you take this rose My sacrifice remains Will you take my rose
