The Black Rose

by Karina...   Oct 13, 2005


Would you forgive me if I said I was sorry?
Would you believe me if I said I'd try harder?
Would you be proud of me if I finally succeeded?
I would.
If it ever happened

It's too late now, it's gone
The darkness has clouded over
Can't think straight anymore
And no, I don't want your acceptance.
I don't need it
That's what I tell myself.

Did you see that sparkling tear drop fall?
Now colour that red, that's how I feel.
Colour me crimson, outline me with dark blue.
That's how I am now
Too far gone.
Ashamed?
I would be if I were you

I wish I were you
I would forget me too
Forget.
Sounds nice doesn't it?
Lets forget together
Then we'd be happy.
Happy, like green and sunshine yellow

I wish I was brand new
A freshly polished shining star
With glittering eyes that told you I'd change
Become different
Would you want me then?
If I were different, someone new?
I would

But it's too late now
The darkness has become too thick
I can barley see anymore

All I am is a faint figure now, standing out in the grey distance
The black rose
But for all it's worth...
I'm sorry
