Lay me down in roses
Pricked by sharper thorns
I'm sick of the posies
I just want a little war
Engulfed by pedals that won't last
The heartache will pass
But I'm stuck by your side so
Lose control, the evenings gone
And now I know that I don't know a thing at all
The past is mighty cruel
This house is me and you
Wait
They
Take me away from you
Left for dead in the city
The city
Why do they hate when I'm with you
Left for dead in the city
The city
Beautiful minds imposing
Feeding fragile fires
In search for solace
I have lost my mind
Enchanted
By lips that won't last
The stupor will pass
As I fall from my daydream so
Ground control
The missions done
And now I know that I don't know a thing at all
The answers are elusive
The truth feels so abusive
Wait
They
Take me away from you
Left for dead in the city
The city
Why do they hate when I'm with you
Left for dead in the city
The city
Oh girl have a ball
Baby I'm still hung up on you
It feels good when I'm with y'all
From New York to California
Wait Wait Wait Wait
Wait
They
Take me away from you
Left for dead in the city
The city
Why do they hate when I'm with you
Left for dead in the city
The city
