Rose (2023 Mix) Lyrics

Rose is walking down the street towards me and I can tell what she's gonna do

She's gonna smoke a cigarette in a holder that is worth more than me and you, combined, yeah

Her hair shimmers like the embers of hell in the fireplace of Lucifer

And when she meets me all she's gonna ask is if I've got a light for her

Hooking up for another dose of sexual therapy, ey

You can hear them through the hum of the studio circuitry, oh

You know what I mean?

Walls shaking from the love they are making in the gallery, yeah eh

Drunk off of Ecstasy and strawberry daiquiris

I'm in the next room and I'm writing songs, writing songs, writing songs for you

I'm in the next room and I'm writing songs, writing songs, writing songs for you, for you, ey, hey

And when she's spent she comes back to see me, then she leans up against my door

She smokes her cigarette, rolled with all her regrets, and tells me just a little more, then she says

Rose says that she doesn't really like me but appreciates my company

Her and Melody have been under the spell you see since they first met me (2003?)

They hooked up like a hand in a glove when they were younger with a hunger and desire

And Bliss, well sometimes she's dismissed, but she certainly is admired

I swear to god that I'm not singing this because of jealousy

Things are fine with a broken mind without popularity

You know what I mean?

You got along years ago I never knew the severity

My tattoo matches you and we should live in solidarity

I'm in the next room and I'm writing songs, writing songs, writing songs for you

I'm in the next room and I'm writing songs, writing songs, writing songs for you, for you
