Today You Learn About: Contorted Rose 18/08/04

[rockstarguy]

Know I never did this to you
Painted your skies to grey from blue
If you knew what I'd sacriced and have given
Would I be redeemed, in your eyes forgiven?

Yeah I justify myself!
How else could I live with myself?
Yeah I justify myself!
I trust and then defy myself!

Contorted rose was once so fair
Your petals scattered everywhere
Your stem adrift, malefic rain
Your thorns can't cause me any pain

Words can never make you see
What you all really mean to me
To see your beauty as I do
Will you be there when I need you?

Yeah I justify myself!
How else could I live with myself?
Yeah I justify myself!
I trust and then defy myself!

I'm not as you have painted me
Uncaring, self-serving, mercenary
God knows I've shown those that I love
What kindness I am capable of

Hell yeah I justify myself!
How else could I live with myself?
Yeah I justify myself!
I trust and then defy myself!
