Black Rose Withered

Star eyes, you've lit the night so many times

Have the tears now diminished your light

Star Eyes, something wrong with your soul

Have the years started taking their toll

Can you still find comfort in the joy and the laughter of past nights

Do they quicken you still in the morning after when the magic wears off

Black Rose -- where is your heart of stone

Maybe the winter for you was too cold

Walk home -- the night isn't yours to own

The moment you had now is gone

Black Rose, are you cold

I can offer my pity but not my love, no

Black Rose, when you wither and fade

I'll be watching you from above

I want you to know that I don't want to hurt you

I don't want to make you cry

I don't really care if you know how it feels

I just want you to choke on your pride
