Thorns on a Rose // Roots

Part 1: Thorns on a Rose

[Verse 1]
I shouldn't let this go too far
Before I know what you are
All that's promised right now is scars
'Cause I know you're capable
I know you won't play fair

[Pre-Chorus 1]
A temptress will never play fair
You lured me in, now we're here
As I feared
But I'm not scared, I'm a warrior
And you are my weakness, I know
Lay down my shield, I'm exposed to your touch
Your touch

[Chorus]
I'm a victim of the high
Lost outside my mind
I'm a victim of the high
Dark skies in paradise
You are the colors in the grey

[Verse 2]
I know you're cold
There's always thorns on a rose
But I can't let go
Your kiss is a hit
One pull and I'm lit

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Helpless fixation
I can't resist
You're a siren
Pulling me into the deep
You are the poison I need
You know you're capable
You know I can't escape

[Chorus]
I'm a victim of the high
Lost outside my mind
I'm a victim of the high
Dark skies in paradise
I'm a victim of the high
I'm a victim of the high

[Interlude/Transition]
Part 2: Roots

[Verse 1]
I hear the rainfall whispering your name
Our love turned to ashes, you were my wild flame
It's not in your nature to stay too long, too long
If you look beneath the surface, some things don't move on

[Verse 2]
Even when love dies
The roots always survive
I'll never look behind
But these grey skies remind me of you
They remind me of you
