There were days I lost the fight
Chasing wrong instead of right
Bad habits pulling at my soul

Sea Of Roses
...The ashes of your ghost still roam within a sea of roses.
Breathing you in, I try to reach through the veils,

And brings the Arctic air our way
Its evil spell is taking hold

And small mammals burro...

No more a gentle breeze that flutters

Autumn trees have lost their leaves
