Have You Ever Seen a Rose Bloom In the Winter

I live in a palace of fools 
Where homemade disaster rules
And children cry in there sleep 
Its their nightmares that he eats
Just as innocence 
Stolen far too young 
A rose blooming in winter 
Is sweeter than one in June
Its novelty lasts forever 
Though its life ends far too soon
