Life is like a boat in a bottle 
 Try to sail, you can't with no air 
 Day by day it only gets harder 
 Try to scream but nobody cares 
    Through the glass you see the same faces 
 Hear the voices fade like a drum 
 When your life's a boat in a bottle 
 You're surrounded, drifting alone   
 Don't leave me now 
 Stay another day with me   
 When you're sad and no one knows it 
 I'll send you black roses 
 When your heart is dark and frozen 
 I'll send you black roses   
 Far away we wait for each other 
 I'm still on that road to nowhere 
 Kiss yourself for me in the mirror 
 Tie a black rose into your hair   
 Don't lose your faith 
 Share another night with me   
 When you're sad and no one knows it 
 I'll send you black roses 
 When your heart is dark and frozen 
 I'll send you black roses   
 Ten black roses 
 Ten black roses   
 Life is like a boat in a bottle 
 Try to sail, you can't with no air 
 Day by day it only gets harder 
 Try to scream but nobody cares   
 When you're sad and no one knows it 
 I'll send you black roses 
 When your heart is dark and frozen 
 I'll send you black roses   
 Ten black roses 
 Ten black roses
