These tricky roses,
odoriferous at first,
But now stinking to high heaven, and
Niggling my mind…
like a thorny thirst
Craving for blood,
grow only on quicksand,
only on quicksand…
Quicksand roses
Silly poses
Quicksand roses
Overdoses
Listen to my battle plan
I'll never ever die again
Never ever die again
These tricky roses,
Grow only on quicksand
That overtaxes my
buoyancy,
making me sink
To the depths of my hell,
where I will bow
To my demons
and obviate them,
without a wink
without a wink
Of my dark eye,
Clairvoyant eye
agonizingly slow,
agonizingly slow
Quicksand roses
Silly poses
Quicksand roses
Overdoses
Listen to my battle plan
I'll never ever die again
Never ever die again
