Dead Roses

Wade in the water
Waiting for cover
Too many years in the crashing waves
Trying to drown out my misery
Searching for closure
But not gettin' closer
So many things that I want to say
But I swallow my words till I start to sink
Too deep in this pain

I should stand up to myself more
Try to let go of my own war
Been destroying myself
I got no one else to blame
I should dose some of my medicine
Pull myself out of my head again
I've been dreaming too long
About an early grave

Don't bury me with dead roses
Don't bury me with dead roses

I'm always the first to give in
Why is it always on me
To hide in the corner?
My own kind of torture
I try and I try to forget
Think I'm addicted to feeling like this
Wade in the water
Will I recover?

I should stand up to myself more
Try to let go of my own war
Been destroying myself
I got no one else to blame
I should dose some of my medicine
Pull myself out of my head again
I've been dreaming too long
About an early grave

Don't bury me with dead roses
Don't bury me with dead roses

My thoughts have me surrendering to myself
There's a war in my mind
I've lost both sides
Possibly the end of me, I need help
Can I make it through this night?

I should stand up to myself more
Try to let go of my own war
Been destroying myself
I got no one else to blame
No one else, no one else to blame
I should dose some of my medicine
Pull myself out of my head again
I've been dreaming too long
About an early grave

Don't bury me with dead roses
Don't bury me with dead roses

Don't bury me with dead roses
Don't bury me with dead roses
Don't bury me with
