Lyrics

Roses

Run into the one you love forever
Laughin' to each other's empty mouth
We all fall through the window
Babies havin' babies
Everything cryin' out loud

Beauty lasts about as long as lightnin'
Honesty's an eight ball in the dark
We all fall in the river
Kissin' our own body
Hope knows where to hammer on a heart
Hope knows where to hammer on a heart

I can't make
This easier
On you

When you've fallen face down in the garden
The roses say whatever comes to mind
Some are staying naked, unafraid of flame
Some only as happy as their life

Some only as happy as their life
Some only as happy as their life
Some only as happy as their life
Some only as happy as their life (some only as happy as their life)

Some only as happy as their life (some only as happy as their life)
Some only as happy as their life
As their life, as their life
Some only happy as their life (some only as happy as their life)

Some only happy as their life (some only as happy as their life)
Some only as happy as their life (as happy as their life)
Some only as happy as their life
Some only as happy as their life (some only as happy as their life)

Some only as happy as their life (as happy as their life)
Some only as happy as their life
Some only as happy as their life
Some only as happy as their life

Happy, some -
Some -
