lyrics
In the desert grows a rose known by another name
Sprouting from a seed of fire buried deep in pain
Caution dances on the wind coming from the Lion’s roar
She will take your everything, leaving nothing
Than a stomach of regret and thirsty eyes
(chorus)
Body smooth as glass
And she knows how to dance
Circles ‘round resolve
Bending ‘til I break
Taking all that she can take
Give up everything
Give it all up for a taste
Of my bittersweet poison
Voice of reason come to me and whisper in my ear
Sing to me a melody, one that only I can hear
To overthrow the power of her glance
Sprouting from a seed of fire buried deep in pain
Caution dances on the wind coming from the Lion’s roar
She will take your everything, leaving nothing
Than a stomach of regret and thirsty eyes
(chorus)
Body smooth as glass
And she knows how to dance
Circles ‘round resolve
Bending ‘til I break
Taking all that she can take
Give up everything
Give it all up for a taste
Of my bittersweet poison
Voice of reason come to me and whisper in my ear
Sing to me a melody, one that only I can hear
To overthrow the power of her glance
