Black Roses

[Verse 1] You left me a vase of thorns On my front step in the rain Cardboard box, tied up with twine And your note with my name Cracked the seal with shaking hands Found the petals gone black Even your sorry looked красив Like you knew I’d send it back [Pre-Chorus] Now the room feels too small Since you walked out slow I still hear your heels On that old wood floor [Chorus] Black roses, black roses You gave me black roses Black roses, black roses And called it love Black roses, black roses I let you close, then froze Black roses, black roses Now I’m done with us [Verse 2] I put them by the sink Watched the water turn gray Seven days on my windowsill Then I threw them away Your ring left a pale white line On my finger, not my heart I kept the box, kept the lie But I tore your note apart [Pre-Chorus] Now the room feels too small Since you walked out slow I still hear your heels On that old wood floor [Chorus] Black roses, black roses You gave me black roses Black roses, black roses And called it love Black roses, black roses I let you close, then froze Black roses, black roses Now I’m done with us [Bridge] No more dried-up promises No more poison wrapped in silk If you come back with empty hands Baby, leave them on the sill I learned the shape of goodbye In the dark, in the dust, in the cold What you left was a memory What I keep is my soul [Chorus] Black roses, black roses You gave me black roses Black roses, black roses And called it love Black roses, black roses I let you close, then froze Black roses, black roses Now I’m done with us
