Roses
Blooms of Regret: Midnight Rose's Tale of Unworthy Love
Lyrics
Why do you give me roses
Questioning the motive behind receiving roses
When we are done for good
Acknowledging the end of the relationship
Why do you give me letters
Questioning the purpose of receiving letters
I thought you understood
Expressing disappointment in a lack of understanding
If I told you that I was afraid sometimes
Admitting fear and vulnerability
´Cause you had a spell on me
Recognizing the influence or control the person had
I would give everything to take it all back
Regret and willingness to undo past actions
You didn't deserve me
Asserting the partner's lack of deserving the speaker
You didn't deserve me
Reiteration of the partner's undeserving nature
Why do I feel confusion
Expressing internal confusion
When all is said and done
Reflecting on the aftermath of the relationship
Why did I let you love me
Questioning the decision to allow love despite knowing it was wrong
When I knew that it was wrong
Acknowledging the conscious awareness of a mistake
If I told you that I was afraid sometimes
Reiterating fear due to the partner's influence
´Cause you had a spell on me
Reemphasizing the partner's spell and control
I would give everything to take it all back
Expressing a desire to undo past actions
You didn't deserve me
Reasserting the partner's lack of deserving
You didn't deserve me
Reiteration of the partner's undeserving nature
Why do you give me roses
Repeating the question about receiving roses
It's time for me to go
Acknowledging the need to move on
Why do you knock on my door
Questioning the persistence of unwanted advances
When all I want is to run
Expressing a desire to escape the situation
Please release me!
An urgent plea for release from the relationship
If I told you that I was afraid sometimes
Reiterating fear and vulnerability
´Cause you had a spell on me
Reemphasizing the partner's spell and control
I would give everything to take it all back
Willingness to undo past actions
If I told you that I was afraid sometimes
Reiterating fear and vulnerability
´Cause you had a spell on me
Reemphasizing the partner's spell and control
I would give everything to take it all back
Expressing a desire to undo past actions
You didn't deserve me
Reasserting the partner's lack of deserving
You didn't deserve me
Reiteration of the partner's undeserving nature
