[Verse 1] I dreamed last night. The world falls silent, almost gentle Your hands move slowly towards me You give me a red rose So red it burns just to look at it I press it against my face The aroma shatters me Soft, warm, familiar For a stupid second I believe something in this mess can last [Pre-Chorus] The petals seem fragile As if time has decided to behave My heart slows down I think, this is it This one stays [Chorus] But dreams lie, they always lie I feel before I see One petal falls Then another Then another I scream, but no one hears Because dreams know how to be cruel as hell [Verse 2] I try to compose myself My hands tremble, useless The red darkens Almost brown Almost dead The perfume changes It's no longer soft It smells of goodbye It smells of something That will never come Back [Pre-Chorus 2] I tell myself “Keep calm, there’s still time” But the ground is already covered With everything I thought Would never fall [Chorus] The petals fall too fast And I start to panic It wasn’t the wind It wasn’t fate It was the dream giving up on me [Bridge] I squeeze the stem until it hurts Thorns tear my skin Blood mixes with the red And for a moment I don’t know what is the flower And what is me I wake up crying The perfume still clinging to my chest Losing the rose isn’t the worst part The worst part is remembering That for a moment It was real [Final Chorus] The petals keep falling Even after I wake up Some dreams never end They just change shape And turn into scars [Outro] Red rose Too delicate to survive Too beautiful Not to hurt when falls
