Bloom

well you asked me
how is this going to work
I know in the end I’ll end up hurt
well that’s reality and I’m not a fan
we’ll make it up as we go and that’s that
you said you love the heat of the fire
but you burned your wings on its allure
safe passage I cannot ensure
that’s just the risk that you got to endure

follow this sound on down
and it won’t be a bed of roses
but I found a soft spot for ya

to lay your head
and just in case
you be the rose I’ll be your thorns
to keep you safe

but the worry still shows on your face
deep paths for my fingers to trace
well that’s life and it beats the alternative
its up to you to choose how you’re going to live

I understand that things aren’t just what they seem
and maybe you and I were just dreams
but if dreams are all we’ll ever have
then aren’t you glad that you gave it a chance

follow me down on down
no I missed you’ve voice last night
I hope that your sleep was sound
where you lay your head
and just incase
you be the rose I’ll be your thorns
and keep you safe

I’ll tell you how this gunna work
I’ll pack my shoes and a couple of shirts
play some shows close to your town
imagine that you’re in the crowd
silently some where in the back
all dolled up in satin and black
smiling to yourself and the room
all wrapped inside the music’s cocoon

follow the sound on down
and right there’s where you’ll find
where the answers been trying to hide
if it’s just in your head
it’s still a lovely space
you be the rose I’ll be your thorns
to keep you safe
