Roses From My Friends - Live

I could have treated you better
 You couldn't have treated me worse
 Oh, but it's he, it's he who laughs last
 Is he who cries first
 Sometimes I feel I know strangers
 Much better than I know my friend
 Why must a beginning
 Be the means to an end?
 The stones from my enemies
 These wounds will mend
 But I cannot survive the roses from my friends
 Oh, I cannot survive the roses
 ♪
 When the last word has been spoken
 And we've beared witness to the final setting sun
 All that shall remain is a token
 Of what we've said and done
 When all we've had
 When all we've had has been forsaken
 Distant church bells no longer ring
 That's the sound of a heart taken
 And the story of tears from a king
 The stones from my enemies
 Oh, these wounds will mend
 But I cannot survive the roses from my friends
 Oh, I cannot survive the roses
 This may be the last time that I see you
 Forgive me for holding you close
 This may be the last time I see you
 So of this moment I will make the most
 This may be the last time I see you
 But if you keep me in your heart
 Together we shall be eternal
 If you believe, we shall never, never, never part
 The stones from my enemies
 These wounds will mend
 But I cannot survive the roses from my friends
 The stones from my enemies
 These wounds will mend
 But I cannot survive, oh, I cannot survive
 Oh, I cannot survive, oh, I cannot survive
 Oh, I cannot survive the roses
 The roses
 Oh, the roses
 The roses
 I cannot survive the roses
 From my friends
