ICON AND THE BLACK ROSES LYRICS

1. Black Rose

Some black roses on the floor
And gliding petals on the river
Your tears are so cold
They 're twisting streams on your pale skin

But once you had a red rose on your hands
And spread its seeds away while hoping they'd blossom red
Sound and safe from that tainted soul of yours

Because your soul is black you fear the sun, wind and rain
And would never let them to shine, blow or fall on your grave
So the red roses are black for you today

Some black roses on the floor
And drips of blood on your fingers
With every torn you hurt so deep
While harvesting on your death field

With honesty justice and dignity you cant turn your roses red

Roses are black roses for you today

2. Endless

She cries with the devil on her hands, now baby
And she wipes her way with tears leaving me to see
That she wont spend her night in vain
Blood is the whisper of her pain

She says
Endless words with endless pain
In a painful world and painful fate
Are endless words with endless pain

She cried, but the devil was on her hands oh baby
And she wiped her way with tears leaving me to see
That she wouldn't spend her night in vain
I still hear her whispers everyday

"And I have lost so much
And she swears she has lost so much"

Everytime you're not here but I can touch your heart
When i look on the mirror I still can see you smile
Everytime you're not here but still I can touch your skin
I just follow the stream of tears to your heart

3. Crucify Your Love

He is feeling a little bit tired of all this disguises he wears to conceal the truth
But now he truly realizes the fully compromise he took hand in hand with him

Crawl down and take a fall
It's the fear of what?s to come
Maybe he doesn't know it

Sometimes you scream, sometimes you pray
Sometimes you pray, sometimes you feel like sorrow is your only choice my love
Sometimes you scream, sometimes you pray
Sometimes you pray, sometimes you feel like sorrow and pain crucified you love

There was this little child that used to crawl in the dark and still had fun
While he listened hours and hours to his midnight radio and his favourite rock n roll bands

So long he?s waited, he feels the wind blows him to his special fate
Hold on does he see?
Watch him does he believe, behind this walls there?s a whole world to take

And when you wake every morning breaks your heart
-sorrow and pain for you my love-
And when you wake every morning breaks your heart
-sorrow and pain for you my love-

My love, my love, my love
As the pain crucifies you love...

4. Dreams And Silver Tears

Don't you try to hide from me
Impure thoughts and false sympathy
How can you disguise what's on your mind
Can't you reveal what you hold inside

Destroyed your dreams live in silver tears
The skies fall on you

Your cries wont change your mind just leave you down
And no lies can change your mind
No matter what I told you
You just don't listen to me
Now everything's changed
Just make truces with yourself and the world and set yourself free

Thinking you're Jesus with a cross to bear
But the emptiest pool of truth could be filled with lies from you baby
Would you run for me as I ran for you? Now you need me?
Ever wondered why you're alone now baby?

I have no hope for you

5. Angel

I love the way that you cry
When your crystal heart is torn apart
And my eyes eager to see

I love the look on your face
The fragile consciousness
The fact you need
The presence of myself, your only true friend

And all you were you gave it up
And your soul is filled with emptiness
And how will you try to get through the night again?

You?re gonna cry like an angel
And when your craving salvation
Just realised I?m your angel
You want me, you left me, you said no no no

I love the way that you turn down your own happiness
And your eyes eager to see another smile from my face
The fragile consequence, the fact you need
The presence of myself, your only true friend

And all we were you gave it up
And your soul is filled with emptiness
And how will you try to get through the night again?

Tears that you cried in vain
You wake always tired of this life that you live
You turned down your own happiness and embraced this fate

6. Remember

Now you're awake
Are you please with your pain ?
And I'm watching, smiling
With hatred comes hatred and your lips now taste it my coldest kiss

And I'd bet my life on this

You are crying for help, you try to reach out for my hand but I wont be there,
'Cause I don't care and I'm leaving you to drown in tears

Recalled your fears, now they become tears, remember I once needed you

7. Sweetest Emptiness Of Love

It's a crime to take all the treasures that I've kept
The lock to my chest now is broken
An hypnotizing stain that drifts between our souls and melts away
Of an extraordinary colour
Brought by cold metal on skin

It's the sweetest emptiness of love
A bitter poison is everything that I've become
And every single tear I owned has run dry on this face
Now that you are gone

I lived enough to know all the reasons why you left
I feel the ending now is coming
I've made a deal with deat
And she gives me happy memories of you that take to amazing horrors
Drains my strength and breath

There is nothing to find, nothing behind, only the ashes of me and you
And some cold rain drops wash us from the floor

8. Black Cage

Through these eyes the world gives me pain
Knowing the sadness all the lies and the gain that we share
Something my touch gives to your soul, I know you're here, it's not that you love me but of what you fear

Without me you're nothing
You're just one in a million

Wait everyday inside this black cage
Hope doesn't seam to fade away
Wait everyday inside this black cage
Hope doesn't seam to fade away
Wait everyday inside this black cage
Tomorrow brings the same again

I'm a mirror reflecting your soul
The way you like, the way you like to see it
It's not really there
As this little boy cries I cried as well
Strange complexity of torture and madness my awareness brings to me

As i try to reach you
I can grab only air

Wait everyday inside this black cage
Hope doesn't seam to fade away
Wait everyday inside this black cage
Hope doesn't seam to fade away
Wait everyday inside this black cage
I reach out for the end

9. Who Do You Hurt Now?

Don't you ever go outside afraid of what is waiting
He said "the world is so cruel sweet baby and I'm the one you can call for help"
But you know that's not the answer
'Cause you're lost and so afraid
Right now you feel the anger coming, and who will you blame?

Who do you hurt now?
You are always bleeding

Don't you ever wonder why the streets look dark and dangerous
And your room is getting smaller everyday baby, inch by inch its your daily torture
You don't seem to be able to live by yourself

From pervert eyes amazing sights
Wipe your tears and light a smile
You are ready
To come outside and breathe some life
Feel some flesh some skin knife
You are ready
And stop hiding, now you know how to deal with this
And stopped crying, these are the last tears you wept and now the run on another face

10. Running Up That Hill

"If I only could, I'd be running up that hill"
"If I only could, I'd be running up that hill"

It doesn't hurt me,
Do you wanna feel how it feels?
Wanna know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you wanna to hear about the deal that I'm making with God?
"It's you
It's you and me"

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building
And if I only could.

You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies,
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder,
Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts..
There's so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, and we both matter, don't we?
"It's you
It's you and me, I won't be unhappy"

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
And if I only could, oh...

"It's you
It's you and me, I won't be unhappy"

"C'mon, baby, c'mon darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange this experience, oh..."

If I only could,
Make a deal with God,
I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that hill..

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems..

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that hill..

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

11. Set Me On Fire

You break my heart and set me on fire
Louder than love

You are coming down like an angel without wings and tear me up with a silver edge blade and everywhere I turn, I see your face

And everywhere I go I fear you
And everywhere I turn I see your face, with despair

I try to one still you are one foot from my back
I speed the pace as I reach out for a grasp
You've got me cornored, I have nowhere to escape

You drive me like your car to your paradise
Can't face this hell you're alone
You drive me in the highway to your heart
I wont stay here you're alone and still no matter what you say
No matter what you say, you're alone

12. Diamond Baby

It's your favourite pleasure
When your love cuts me deep
Like a razor or a diamond, baby

Its late at night and I can't sleep
Feeling the entwined streams of silver tears
They are running down my cheek

And I've never known such pain like the one you give me all night long
You just can't get enough
You just can't get enough

You are wondering naked in my bed
And everytime I close my eyes you are in my dreams
I see you there, you're everywhere

And I've never known such pain like the one you give me all night long
You just can't get enough
I just can't get enough

All the way, all the way, like a razor
Come on and wash your hands on my blood baby
Come on, come on, you are my lady, come on
Just come and wash your hands on my blood baby
