Blue Roses Lyrics - Between The Stars - Flyleaf

You said "Come on, let's go down that Yellow Brick Road" 

But that path was primrose and led back to black and white 

And now I know, since that day you chose to let me know 

My heart's been tangled with thorns that choke the light 

Oh, here I go, collecting roses to me from you 

Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound 

Oh, now I stop and smell the roses when they're blue 

Gonna find my way, break the lock on the Emerald City gates 

It could be simple, but we're only half-awake 

I feel the pain set in when I think of you and grip the stems 

I feel my head begin to spin, I'm not alright 

Oh, here I go, collecting roses to me from you 

Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound 

Oh, now I stop and smell the roses when they're blue 

When they're blue 

Let go of the stems, free to bloom again 

Let go of the stems, free to bloom again 

Here I go, collecting roses to me from you 

Oh, here I go, a dozen red for every wound 

Oh, now I stop and smell the roses when they're blue 

(Stop, stop, stop) Let go of the stems, free to bloom again 

(Stop, stop, stop) Free to bloom again when they're blue
