Under the Rose

My breath took my words
Clashing close with a painful hold
Beating in my throat, neck and head
My heart's blood, speeding pass limits

Escape I wanted, from misery
Peace, calm and freedom I no
Longer possess, lossing sight
Of understanding, love and life

Urge to scream, brake, destroy
Live deep within my soul
Hoping this will bring control
While lossing my whole world

There before me, the eyes of pain
The voice of blood
I still see sexy, handsome and love
