I found the note that you wrote me
Neatly folded on your side of the bed
Tears of anger welled from inside me
Spilled out of my eyes as I read

It smelled like a rose

You said your love for me was an ember
That never sparked into a flame
Your life's too short to waste on another
A mistake that you will not make again

It stuck me like a rose

solo

I found the note that you wrote me
Neatly folded on your side of the bed
Tears of rage welled from deep inside me
Spilled out of my eyes as I read

It cut me like a rose
