Tattered and Torn
Black Rose
Tears always falling
To laugh and scream at the same time
Prisoners to our broken bodies
Yet to dream of freedom some day
Two of a kind
Both tattered and torn
Searching for something
We will never find
Perhaps I should leave here
Go far away
But I long to be with you
So I am here to stay
For another day
The sun rises and sets with you so far away
Yet so near
You presence gives life to me
Black Rose
We can warm each other’s hearts
We are both so cold and tired of this cruel world
Both hurt by death, rejection, bullies
Both betrayed
Forever two friends
That know love
A love beyond what few can
even imagine
Black Rose
You are beautiful to me
Love has to win
Faith
