The thorns from your harshness slit into me and come out dripping crimson
tears
Pierce into darkness like the flames you didn't want to show and feared
You throw it away like it doesn't matter but you cut yourself in spite
And as our blood runs together you cry into the night
You wonder why (oh why)
As you cry (cry and cry)
Into the freezing night (freezing night)
What the hell didn't I do right?
You lead your life as though it never happened
But my scars show that it never ended
You killed me with your sweetness
And tortured me with my weakness
You killed me the second you cut the rose
But this is what you wanted and chose
Kill the one closest to your heart
But I knew I'd die from the start
And you wonder why
As you cry
Into the freezing night
What didn't I do right...?
