Thornless rose

Intro/Ref 
Dreaming your dreams, you know you'll be caught.
You're so shameless and pride is you cause.                                                                              
I still wonder, how long you can stay.                                 
Until you die, and red fades to gray.                                                                                    

Strophe 1 
He's looking at you, and you know he knows.                 
We all are the same, there's no thornless rose.                                                             
Paddle for paddle you're falling apart.        
However, I tried but there was no heart.                                                                           
Tear down the thorns, the rose slowly dies           
No is perfect no matter who tries (x2)                                                                                                                  

Strophe 2 
Back in the days you went you path.
Today you wonder, they never came back.
You always want to be someone else.
someone without flaws, but never yourself.
They stare at you , cause they know your lies
No is perfect no matter who tries  (x2)       
 
Outro 
eyes on you lies they knew(x2)
all away(2x)
red fades to gray (x3)
one last paddle flew through the wind (x7)
