lyrics

could i ever please you?
your avarice persists;
picking flowers at endless hours
dripping petals from my wrists
you were the angel
covered in dew
skyward shift, i made a gift
red roses for you

i fell on my knees
eager to please
(eager to please)

won't you breathe upon my face
touch my shoulder with your grace
oh your kindness, all the sum
of wherever god sent you from
you precious, playful ingenue
i'll never be enough for you
bled into, bled into
red roses for you

all the red it bled

i heard the brush of feathers,
and saw your slow descent;
the corners of your mouth turned down
framed your heartfelt discontent
you took my little offering,
and into the sky you flew;
heaven borne, and wreathed in thorns
blood roses for you

i fell on my knees
desperate to please
(desperate to please)

won't you breathe upon my face
touch my shoulder with your grace
oh your kindness, all the sum
of wherever god sent you from
you precious, sinful ingenue
i'll never be enough for you
bled into, bled into
red roses for you

all the red I bled
all the red I bled
