Roses upon my grave...

Roses upon my grave...

Crushing waves through my body is the passage to my thoughts
Drowning thoughts and fighting to breathe are my wooden ores

The blackened and bruised face of a thousand stories are mine
The grave stone letters of rest in peace, together we are here
The thorns of red rose's you put upon is kind
Buried beneath with my mind, feeling your heart is near

Forget the depth of the ocean
Your faults are my fortune
Swimming in your emotions
My kindness is too cruel

Gravity is pulling me in to your seductive ways
False accusations is putting you inside four walls
Washing my sins for the wrongs I've done
Now I'm on that last mile and soon I must walk

The devil is going to show me a righteous way while I'm heavy in ball and chain
I'm going to meet my maker but it's not going to be at them pearly gates
With a sinful glee
Trailing ball and chain
He is setting me free
Now I'm set free...

I forgot the depth of the ocean
Your faults were my fortune
I swam in your emotions
My kindness was too cruel
With ball and chain
I feel no pain....
