Black Roses (ROUGH DEMO)

[Verse 1]

Your picture frame

Is on the backboard of my bed, your face is lying by my head

When I am trying to get to sleep at night

Yeah, you can watch when I experiment

And touch me when I'm dying in the sheets

Our eyes might accidentally meet in time

[Pre-Chorus]

Slipping deeper into a state of psychosis

Guided by the scripture through the garden of black roses

And I don't know if I'll be coming out (I can't let go!)

[Refrain]

You got me twisting in my dreams

You're the ghost and you're sucking on my scream

I can't seem to slip away

You're always there to lead me back, back into

You got me hanging upside down

From the tree with an apple in my mouth

Out of phase and into focus

You keep turning me off

And turning me on, and turning me off

[Chorus]

Deep in black roses

Dateless doses

I'm falling victim to black roses

[Verse 2]

And now this bed is like a coffin in my room

The sickly scent of your perfume

Because the leaking starts to suffocate

'Cause I'm possessed by crimson hands

When they caress, and now you're underneath my dress

You read my thoughts and we communicate

[Pre-Chorus]

Slipping deeper into a state of psychosis

Guided by the scripture through the garden of black roses

And I don't know if I'll be coming out (I can't let go!)

[Chorus]

Deep in black roses

Dateless doses

I'm falling victim to black roses

Black roses, black roses

I'm falling victim to black roses

Black roses, black roses

I'm falling victim to black roses

[Bridge]

You're turning me off

Out of phase and into focus

You keep turning me off

And turning me on, and turning me off

[Breakdown]

Black roses go down, down, down

Black roses go down, down, down

Black roses go down, down, down

Black roses, black roses

[Chorus]

Deep in black roses

Dateless doses

I'm falling victim to black roses

Black roses, black roses

I'm falling victim to black roses

Black roses, black roses

I'm falling victim to black roses

Black roses, black roses, black roses
