Beauty of the Rose - 2024 Remaster

I don't know which way to go from here

I stick my hand through a liquid mirror

And I wonder just what I've reached

Is it my blood dripping or an hallucination

Guess it depends if I feel the pain

I take the bottle just to never set it down again

It's thrown into the ocean

You better believe there's a message in it

I've gotta get through to you somehow

But if it lays on the ocean floor

Well then I failed again

It just explodes itself in my mind

And it's blinding me from what's right or wrong

The beauty of the rose

It pulls my instinct to grab it

The clenching of the stem

I feel the thorns catching under my skin

Yeah, well it's something just like this

Pulling you in until it makes its threat

Then it's not easy to pass judgment

Do me a favor

When I reach my hand out

Won't you please just cut it off

So I can understand a little more of the situation

Taking me for all the left had

I can't tell which is right or wrong

What's black or white, which is left or right

Could you tell me which is it supposed to be for me?

♪

But I don't know which way to go from here

I turn left and right and I'm still standing in the rear

I can't tell which way the bloody situation runs

I hear you talking but I can't understand a word

No, I can't tell what the hell I'm supposed to do with this

Hear you talking, but it's all full of bullshit

I take the bottle just to never set it down again

I lay there wishing I was dead
