Verse 1:
A rose so red, so pure and bright,
A sight that fills my heart with light,
But as I reach to touch its bloom,
I feel a prick, a sense of doom.
Chorus:
A bloody rose, a sight to see,
A symbol of love, and misery.
A flower that's both beauty and pain,
A warning of what we stand to gain.
Verse 2:
A rose so red, so innocent,
A symbol of love, so eloquent,
But as I gaze upon its form,
I see the thorns, so sharp and warm.
Chorus:
A bloody rose, a sight to see,
A symbol of love, and misery.
A flower that's both beauty and pain,
A warning of what we stand to gain.
Bridge:
But though the thorns may cause us pain,
And though the blood may leave a stain,
We must remember, we have the choice,
To love and cherish, with our own voice.
Chorus:
A bloody rose, a sight to see,
A symbol of love, and misery.
A flower that's both beauty and pain,
A warning of what we stand to gain.
Outro:
A rose so red, so pure and bright,
A sight that fills my heart with light,
But as I reach to touch its bloom,
I feel a prick, a sense of doom.
