A rose we have for love and death

a love in death or death in love

gladly holding our last breath

to surrender to a dying sun

Forever we are forever we'll be

forever in love with the darkness we see

immortal beloved of martyred souls

forever drinking the blood of the rose.

And so we drink by phoenix flame

alight with our immortal fear

where love and death is our prey

and roses bleed lakes of tears

Forever we are forever we'll be

forever in love with the darkness we see

immortal beloved of martyred souls

forever drinking the blood of the rose.

and ever we wait for the final rose

the rose of death evades us so

immortal we are without a home

reaping where we havent sown

Forever we are forever we'll be

forever in love with the darkness we see

immortal beloved of martyred souls

forever drinking the blood of the rose.

Cast these roses around me

bury me in thorns and blood

theres no need to rescue me

from the sea of tears im drowning in.
