Never Held a Rose
I never held a rose
Neither handle its blossoms nor held its stem
I never held a rose before or after
Tormented Minds in this filthy or world
All remnants of drop shadow and torn spoils
Who are we to warn our fellow man
a man who never held a rose
Mostly comforting, confident and secure
Is the man is the one who never held a rose
After no before I came up to the door
And they wouldn't let me in
And why was it because I was not one of them
On where they my true friends
Will I don't know but listen here
Neither handle this problem before
Cuz I should have not opened the doors
Beat the enemy at bay tormented mind filthy world
What are we here for afters or befores
It's the one who hasn't held the rose
I never held a rose neither it's blossom's nor held its stem I never held a rose
Before or after tormented mind filthy world all remnants of drop shadow and torn who are we to warn our fellow man
A man who has never held a rose
