Strange flowers grow here
These roses ain't what they seem
The only red you'll see
Is the blood drippin' from your chin
Stop cryin', angels are gone
Burned my house down to build a home
It's been a long time since I was gone
Welcome to the gardens of love
♪
Your love is anger
I keep runnin' after you
Though I have things to do
I should give up on you
Danger
It's a loathsome disease
That's takin' over me
I need to heal from thee
I know you wanna feel, feel more alive
But I'm caught in a game we only play at night
And why do I always lose? Yeah, I always lose
The one who falls is doomed
It's like you condemn my soul
To the gallows of your love
But I'm not meant for this
I'm not meant for it
It's what I choose to believe
And now I gotta focus
Gotta figure out what really broke us
I have news for you
I'm the big bad wolf, now the little lamb is you
♪
You were a stranger
Came and fooled me with your tricks
Showed me things I've never seen
Played my heart and broke its strings
An angel
Made me touch the divine
Took your knife and stabbed me twice
A devil sent from paradise
The tender bloom is gone and so am I
But these flowers I'm paintin', they will never die
And I put this curse on you, yeah, my curse on you
The day you fall you're doomed (Donne-moi ton âme)
It's like you condemn my soul
To the gallows of your love
But I'm not meant for this
I'm not meant for it
It's what I choose to believe
And now I gotta focus
Gotta figure out what really broke us
I have news for you
I'm the big bad wolf, now the little lamb is you
Maybe in another life you would try
To live in the name of our sacred lie
But this life is the only one we get
I'd better learn to live without you
But in a different life it would be alright
To wait for you every day and night
Like I used, like I used to do
The one who falls is doomed
