Look at this man who's lost his dream
And wonders why the roses bleed
You listen now to my momentary escape
As this life just fades away

No second chance to be more
Than we are now
Tomorrow is no guarantee
That's my solace
Take this gift, the knowledge now bestowed
Take it and seek
The only thing which matters
The momentary escape

The momentary escape
There is no cure
These moments are all that is
As I watch my roses bleed

Look at the nature of the lifestream
And all the bloody roses past
So go find it now, that momentary escape
Before your life fades away

Your life fades away
These moments are all that is
The roses bleed
They'll betray

Tomorrow is no guarantee
That's my solace
Take this gift, the knowledge now bestowed
Time won't stop for you
