lyrics

When she picks the Ashen Rose
She lets her fingers bleed,
on scented clothes.
She goes to speak.
It's all a show.
Crawl on my hands & knees,
beneath her toes.
She smells so sweet.
She almost glows.
I sing my life for her.
She sighs & goes.

(CHORUS)
I can't take the pain away.
Until someone knows.
She can't ask me to be fair.
(Not) Like Ashen Rose.

And kiss the face of Ashen Rose.
Her frightened eyes light up,
she smiles and knows.
So delicate.
What she says goes.
I could change my ways for her.
If I suppose.

repeat CHORUS.
