The Stem, The Thorns and the Rose
I have lived a lonely time
Of pleasing you or die
Washed away my coloured thoughts
And chewed the smile from me
My heart big and warm
My thought brushed aside
Still you turns the knife in my side
My heart big and strong
My soul lost and torn
Still I'll stand here with pride
You still don't accept me
Thus pleasing you till dawn
Obstacles before me
So I could never fly
My heart big and warm
My thought brushed aside
Still you turns the knife in my side
Bled away my strength
So that I would break
But I know I'll run and hide
I won't run and hide
I won't run and hide
Your guilt is not enough, enough, enough
I won't run and hide
My heart big and warm
My thought brushed aside
Still you turns the knife in my side
My heart big and warm
My soul lost and torn
And I stand here with pride
My heart big and warm
My thought brushed aside
Still you turns the knife in my side
My heart big and warm
My soul lost and torn
Still I stand by your side
