[Verse 1]
Red on the carpet
Red on my hands
You called it romance
I call it demands
Perfume and pressure
Sugar and blade
You braided your promises
Into the chains you made
[Pre-Chorus]
Every petal on my skin
Left another line of sin
You were beauty
You were shame
Carved your name
[Chorus]
Roses have scarred me
Deep in the flesh
In the faith
In the bone (oh)
You crowned me in thorns
Then you sat on your funeral throne
I bled for your garden
Drank every poison you poured down my throat
Roses have scarred me
Now I wear them like armor you wrote
[Verse 2]
Glass in the sunlight
Smiles in the dark
You hid your cruelty
Inside a spark
Vows like a love spell
Black on the page
You kissed me so gently
Then doubled the cage
[Pre-Chorus]
Every petal on my skin
Was a quiet violin
Played in minor
Played in vain
Under rain
[Chorus]
Roses have scarred me
Deep in the flesh
In the faith
In the bone (scream it)
You crowned me in thorns
Then you sat on your funeral throne
I bled for your garden
Drank every poison you poured down my throat
Roses have scarred me
Now I wear them like armor you wrote
[Bridge]
I tear out the vines
Root by root from my veins
I tear out your shrine
Brick by brick
Break the chains (hey)
If love is a weapon
Then I am the war you began
Your petals are ashes
Blown from my hand
[Chorus]
Roses have scarred me
Deep in the flesh
In the faith
In the bone
You crowned me in thorns
But I rise from your funeral throne
I bled for your garden
Now I salt every lie that you spoke
Roses have scarred me
Yet the scars are the proof that I broke
Roses have scarred me
And the pain is the proof that I woke
