Dead rose, you were once so vibrant As you stretched out towards the sun And spread your pedals wide To take it all inside Dead rose, tried to keep you alive But you drank the water dry And now you’re facing down Your pedals scattered on the ground But you grew so naturally at first And so this natural death occurs A stem in water never lasts as long As roots planted in dirt And although we have had our time It hurts to watch you fade and die What once was stunning and alive Becomes so cold and Dead rose, I don’t love you anymore Dead rose, you’re a symbol of the truth Of the love we had for you How all good things must end and with each death new life begins Dead rose, how am I suppose to find Something equally divine? No matter where I go I plant the seeds but nothing grows But you grew so naturally at first And so this natural death occurs A stem in water never lasts as long As roots planted in dirt And although we have had our time It hurts to watch you fade and die What once was stunning and alive Becomes so cold and dead inside How fleeting is love, how fleeting is life When I came home and shut the door I saw your last pedal hit the floor And I was struck by something I’d never felt before Dead rose, I don’t love you any more We’ll look back on the day When the dead rose from the grave No more sorry and shame The new body and name Nothing perfect will die No more tears in our eyes No more worries and trials We’ll have faith like a child’s When I come through that open door I’ll finally see you as you really are And I’ll be struck by something I’d never felt before Dead rose I will love you forever more Dead rose I will love you forever more
