Dead Roses

(Karianne Gabaldon)

These lyrics are about psychosis and trying to escape the inner demons in their minds and what lies inside their darkness. It’s very deep and dark, but it’s perfect for those with psychosis.

(Verse 1) 
 
My brain, 
Can’t contain, 
All the love the world has to offer me. 
Insane, 
Is my name, 
Or what they seem to like to call me. 
 
I lie, 
Here inside, 
My mind that hides in haunted houses. 
That’s why, 
I don’t try, 
To tell them what I think about me. 
 
I can’t, 
Understand, 
Why my fucked up mind inside me cries. 
Or why, 
It chose me, 
I guess I’m the kind to rot away and die. 
 
(Pre Chorus) 
 
I’m shaking from this, 
I just gotta quit, 
This horrific shit. 
 
But I can’t, it’s my mind, 
Controlling all the time, 
It won’t spare a dime, 
For my soul. 
I’d tell you that Im trying to take control... 
 
(Chorus) 
 
But I never had the chance, 
To save my mind’s last dance. 
I fell too hard, 
It left me scarred. 
 
And I’ll try and try again, 
But I swear this is the end. 
My mind, it is frozen, 
Inside lies a bed of dead roses. 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
The dead, 
Calls my name, 
And it’s skeletal sounds haunting from the grave. 
I live, 
Life this way, 
The echoes of the spirits raise. 
 
The ghosts, 
They have most, 
Of my ripped of pieces in brainless matter. 
Demons, 
On the run, 
I’m out of breath, they catch me, falls the ladder. 
 
Explore, 
Me some more, 
And find that one day you’ll be the same way. 
So just, 
Watch, you must. 
Watch out for zombies aiming on their prey. 
 
(Pre Chorus) 
 
This gets to me, 
So easily. 
Impossible, you see. 
 
Nobody understands, 
How hard it is and, 
I’m sinking in the sand, 
I’m running away from a man. 
I try to reach out to you with my hand...
