Rose (Live at Red Rocks)

Don't disturb the beast, the temperamental
Goat, the snail, while he's feeding on the
Rose, stay frozen, compromise
What I will, I am

Bend around the wind, silently
Thrown about again I'm treading so
Soft and lightly compromising
My will, I am

I am, I will, so no longer
Will I lay down, play dead, play your doe
In the headlight locked down and terrified
Your deer in the headlights shot down and horrified
When push comes to pull comes to shove comes to step around this
Self-destructive dance that never would've ended 'til
I rose, I roared aloud
Here, I will, I am

I am, I will, so no longer
Will I lay down, play dead, play this
Kneel down, gun shy, martyr, pitiful
I rose, I roared, I will, I am
