Pull me from my roots and leave me there
Another prize to win, a souvenir
Put me on a shelf in gold and glass
A pretty thing to see but never hear
The rose you leave alone
will leave you with a thorn
The rose you leave alone
The rose you leave
I can't breathe anymore
Heart can't beat anymore
Who leaves a lover
Lying on the floor
You had the rose
Now you have the thorn
I could've grown
I coulda been somebody else
I could have learned to love myself
You took the innocence from my lips
So I will make you bleed with every kiss
The rose you leave alone
Will leave you with a thorn
The rose you leave alone
The rose you leave
I can't breathe anymore
Heart can't beat anymore
Who leaves a lover
Lying on the floor
You had the rose
Now you have the thorn
