Lyrics
Ground down
It's taking the best of me
You push me further along the edge that I'm on
Giving in
Each day the pain showing
Now you push it back in and paint the roses
Masks off
Shaking the core of me
With every step you make it clear what is gone
Deep in
The mires of misery
Prop it up with a grin and paint the roses
You paint the roses red
You paint the picture instead
Then you dress up the dead
Off with her head
Round and round we go
Burn desire
I won't set myself on fire to keep you warm
You can call it what you want
Maybe both our hearts were broken from the start
Kowtow
Just to make it easy
As I resent the fact that I wasn’t wrong
Losing
All my humanity
Frame a loss as a win and paint the roses
I know
This ain't the best for me
And knew the pieces didn't fit all along
Feeling
True love is a fantasy
Gloss over your sins and paint the roses
You paint the roses
You paint the roses red
We paint the roses
Dress up the dead
You paint the roses
Were poisoned by the lead
We paint the roses
(Off with her head)
What's worse, the cure or the curse?
It's just the same old song
Burdened but so sure that it hurts
You can't reverse it plays on and on and on
What's worse, the cure or the curse?
It's just the same old song
Burdened but so sure that it hurts
You can't reverse it plays on and on and on
Round and round we go
Burn desire
I won't set myself on fire to keep you warm
You can call it what you want
Maybe both our hearts were broken from the start
Ground down
It's taking the best of me
You push me further along the edge that I'm on
Giving in
Each day the pain showing
Now you push it back in and paint the roses
Masks off
Shaking the core of me
With every step you make it clear what is gone
Deep in
The mires of misery
Prop it up with a grin and paint the roses
Red
What's worse, the cure or the curse?
It's just the same old song
Burdened but so sure that it hurts
You can't reverse it plays on and on and on
What's worse, the cure or the curse?
It's just the same old song
Burdened but so sure that it hurts
You can't reverse it plays on and on and on
