Dead Roses

Why'd you call my bluff when you know you'll only leave me lonely?
 Do I have to play games with myself
 To keep from drifting slowly (It's never enough)
 Up in the sky, see violet light, I'm feeling calm but not homely
 It's too warm, now it's too cold I can't sleep
 So I think about my dead roses (I can't count them all)
 I just needed you to let go of the last one
 Needed the last one to let go of the last one
 And the one before that, for the one before that
 And the one before that, for the one before that
 And the one before that, for the one before that
 And the one before that, for the one before that
 Why do I fall asleep thinking I'll only be whole when you hold me?
 I have friends and we laugh
 But a piece of me is aching
 Show me (how to grow)
 Over things I don't need
 But I want you to feel like you know me (like I know you)
 Dive into other waters just to see what else can mould me
 I just needed you to let go of the last one
 Needed the last one to let go of the last one
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
 And the one before that
 For the one before that
