Battlechain Rose

Last night I slept in the middle of the bed
Moved only inches but it was miles in my head
I hadn’t been on your side in a very long time
And the wind in your heart hadn’t blown you to mine

I am two shades of blue from a battlechain rose
I’m as blue as the sky
The night before the storm wind blows
I’m as broken and bruised as a battlechain rose
Watch my petals hit the ground, scatter in the snow
Carry me to safety battlechain rose

3 A.M. I dreamt in the middle of the bed
Of the Hemlock hanging in the garden where we wed
You smiled through the sunlight taking my hand
Then you shattered like glass
And blew away like grains of sand

I am two shades of blue from a battlechain rose
I’m as blue as the sky the night before the storm wind blows
I’m as broken and bruised as a battlechain rose
Watch my petals hit the ground, scatter in the snow
Oh won’t you carry me to safety battlechain rose?

Break of dawn I wept in the middle of the bed
The sheets so cold deception steeped the threads
Your words running like a freight train through my head
I’m looking for a way out but the only exit sign’s within

I am two shades of blue from a battlechain rose
I’m as blue as the sky the night before the storm wind blows
I’m as broken and bruised as a battlechain rose
Watch my petals hit the ground, scatter in the snow
Oh won’t you carry me to safety battlechain rose?
