Prayer of Roses
Pieta Brown
Prayer of roses
Prayer so true
Prayer of roses
I’m burning for you
Prayer of roses
Sinner’s delight
I pray to these flowers
You will be alright
I saw you at midnight
Fading away
I held you in my arms
Wishing you would stay
Prayer of roses
Petals and thorns
& the heat on my skin now
Where my shirt is torn
(CHORUS)
Flowers all around
Colors & circles
Dagger & chain
Prayer of roses
Relieve the pain
If I had a dollar
For every wrong
I’d burn them all tonight
& sing you a song
Flowers all around
Sweet fragrance of roses
Veils & mirrors
I asked for love
You gave me tears…
Prayer of roses
Love to the world
I’m standing before you
My banner unfurled
Prayer of roses
Prayer for my friends
& to my demons
May we make amends
Flowers all around
Flowers all around…
