I Am the Rose

I am the rose 
i fall to my knees 
I am the rose 
you violate me 

If life is just a stage 
and we are all meaningless actors 
I'll add that to my list of complaints 
and we can write another chapter. 

If life's just a journey 
and we're approaching the end 
then we'll just say 
I've been too busy counting blessings 
and asking questions 

I am the rose 
I fall to my knees 
I am the rose 
you violate me 

If life's just a dream 
don't wake me from this coma 
to the whispers 
if life's just a test 
we'll just say i passed with flying colors 
like the rest of them dead souls 

I am the rose 
I fall to my knees 
I am the rose 
You violate me
