Throw Your Roses

I can see your eyes looking up at me
To see if anyone is noticing
No one has been there to listen
All the more reason to sing
I promise this won’t last forever
I don't want to let you make that choice
You don't need to abuse your arms but use your voice

I know right now you think that no one is listening
If we fall together, we'll live forever and never grow alone

When I look out, I see a field of youth
And it is filled with doubt
A field of flowers pulling their petals off way too soon
One by one. Dropping like flies no one is speaking up

I know right now you think that no one is listening
If we fall together, we'll live forever and never grow alone
You can grow out from decay
But what you do with your today
Can resonate to everything, keep growing

We've been pulled from the earth
We know but we can still grow though
We've both started to die and slow
Why pick ourselves early?
We're dying here anyways
Remember I can show you light
But you will have to learn
How to grow on your own
What is a rose with no thorn?

I know right now you think that no one is listening
If we fall together, we'll live forever and never grow alone

You can grow out from decay
But what you do with your today
Can resonate to everything, keep growing
