They say you pick everything you find I guess what they say is true
Now all my roses have fallen behind I’m left with bloody thorns from you
Lust is easy love is hard You flatter those you scarcely know You please the fleeting guest And deal out thoughtless blows
To the one who loves you the most
I take you up the mountain You take my heart and push me to the ground
I give you all my power You give me nothing but your broken crown I teach your pain how to sing You teach me why I leave what I have found I take you up the mountain
You take my heart and push me to the ground
You shed a little light and cave in on me The villain begs the hero to choose
From the dust and dogs of empty days The silence whistles memories of you
Oh lover come lover quickly go Scrape the surface you’re a skipping stone When you disappear I’m better off with tears Than knowing I was always alone
