I lost the war of the roses, the night he set me free.
The demons live inside of me, oh my fairest, can't you see?
I still long for what you could never give me.
The war of the roses, they just let you be.
Red ones, pink, yellow, white and black.
Oh my fairest, don't you want me back?
Long stemmed ones cut without any thorns.
Evil inside you, the day that you were born.
Some say that you can never find love again.
My fairest, I don't think that this is your end.
You can love a few men at a time, but loving you was my crime.
I will pick just one love at a time.
Countless nights, I awoke with you in my dreams.
Countless nights, all I did was scream.
Oh my fairest, where did you go?
Oh my fairest, didn't you want me, some time ago?
Long stemmed roses, how did you know?
I have fallen with you by my side.
Losing you, just made me cry
Long stemmed roses, have just died.
Oh my fairest, why did you lie?
Weighing heavily on your answer but never knowing what's the truth.
Isn't freedom what you chose?
Oh my fairest, why did you lie?
Oh my fairest, why did you cry?
I thought you loved me, but my senses tell me no.
Why were you playing games with my heart?
I threw the arrow, but where did it go?
It was long, and it was sharp.
I am obsessed and don't take no for an answer anymore.
I played the field one, too many times.
When did I see you before?
The loud shrilling voices follow me into the cave of horrors, how did I get here?
In this destruction of fear!
Where did these voices come from, in this adaptation of moments, I will always follow you into your dreams.
I'm coming closer, I am gonna scream.
Watch for me in your dreams.
Never let go of the one thing that kept you sane.
Running through the rain.
Oh my fairest, why did you lie?
Oh my fairest, why did you cry?
Let go of my nightmares.
Let go of my fears
Let me see your tears
Before the demons appear.
Oh my fairest, why did you lie?
Oh my fairest, why did you cry?
Hush, hush, go to sleep
Hush, hush, do not weep
Do not move, or make a peep.
Hush, hush, go to sleep.
Open your eyes, at your risk, do not weep
Or make a peep.
Oh my fairest, why did you lie?
Oh my fairest, why did you cry?
Longing for the mirrors of your glass house.
Longing for the images, of your dead spouse.
You took me into your world, just to break me down.
So I am taking you into my world, watch your step, what comes around, goes around.
Cross my heart, hope to die, promises, promises, don't you lie.
I will take you on this ride
Keep those secrets deep inside.
Oh my fairest, why did you lie?
Oh my fairest, why did you cry?
