Verse 1 Once they bloomed in crimson light, perfume sweet and rare, Now the petals curl and bleed, poison in the air. A garden built on heartbreak, watered with your cries, Every stem is whispering the sound of something dying. Chorus Rotting roses of terror — thorns beneath my skin, Their beauty hides the venom that drags you deep within. Love decays in silence, buried in despair, Rotting roses of terror — death is in the air. Verse 2 Hands that once caressed me now claw from the grave, The roots entwine like serpents, the flowers never save. Each bloom a dying heartbeat, each leaf a ghostly sigh, They blossom in your nightmares, they bloom where angels die. Chorus Rotting roses of terror — thorns beneath my skin, Their beauty hides the venom that drags you deep within. Love decays in silence, buried in despair, Rotting roses of terror — death is in the air. Bridge (haunting whispers + slow organ) “Pick one, darling, hold it tight… Feel it bleeding through the night. Fragrance sweet, but full of pain, Every rose remembers your name…” Breakdown (screaming guitars + echoing breaths) Thorns pierce deeper, color drains, The garden laughs — it knows your pain. Petals fall like tongues of fire, Feeding on your last desire. Final Chorus (explosive, orchestral horror) Rotting roses of terror — beauty turned to rot, Every kiss you gave them another scar you got. The vines are creeping higher, they pull you to the floor, Rotting roses of terror — you’re theirs forevermore. Outro (fading heartbeat + soft whisper) The garden sleeps, your breath is gone, A single petal lingers on. It falls, it fades, it melts away… Love has turned to horror’s bouquet.
