Split Seven Ways rose in the thorns

Select language to translate this lyric

We got so close, just to fall apart
And I found I could not defeat
Ghosts that haunted you from the start
Memories that left you incomplete
I think of the things I could have done
To help you, fix you, but
Even though we're both still young
Your heart and mind sealed shut
You were a star in the dark, a rose in the thorns
That's slowly being swallowed
You're a creature that was full of life
Rendered cold and hollow
You think you found a path to grace
It comes at such a cost
Soon, there'll be nothing that can replace
The heart that you have lost
I'm tired of the hypocrisy
My love is not some prize
Your eyes said you're in love with me
But your words claimed otherwise
So go away, leave me alone
I can't be near you now
I hope someday you can atone
Your sins; just don't know how
You were a star in the dark, a rose in the thorns
That's slowly being swallowed
You're a creature that was full of life
Rendered cold and hollow
You think you found a path to grace
It comes at such a cost
Soon, there'll be nothing that can replace
The heart that you have lost
I've got a life to crawl back to
I guess I'm luckier than you
You were a star in the dark, a rose in the thorns
That's slowly being swallowed
You're a creature that was full of life
Rendered cold and hollow
You think you found a path to grace
But it comes at such a cost
Soon, there'll be nothing that can replace
The heart that you have lost
