Red, Like Roses Lyrics by The Velvet Teen
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Each night I close my eyes and wonder what will come of me in days to follow
I lay awake and after coutless hours I just can't think straight
Turn in, fade, pass out
Yet, in this simple way we offer
To destroy all we can't figure out
In our simple lives, unconscious
We employ our skills from underground

To seek what we've never seen
To explore, deep inside

The mornings greet me with grey days and tear-stained windowsills and pillowcases
I get dressed and go to work
Bloody noses, red like roses pose as sanctuary
When I just get a minute to myself
And in this simple way, we offer
To destroy all we can't figure out
In our simple lives, unconscious
We emply our skills from the underground

To seek what we've never seen
To find, what we never knew
To explore deep, inside

Kill me
Kill me won't you
Make me sleep again
Kill me
Kill me won't you

To see what we've never seen
To find what we've never knew
To go where we'd never dared
To explore
Deep...
Each night I close my eyes and wonder what will come of me in days to follow    I lay awake and after coutless hours I just can't think straight    Turn in, fade, pass out    Yet, in this simple way we offer    To destroy all we can't figure out    In our simple lives, unconscious    We employ our skills from underground       To seek what we've never seen    To explore, deep inside       The mornings greet me with grey days and tear-stained windowsills and pillowcases    I get dressed and go to work    Bloody noses, red like roses pose as sanctuary    When I just get a minute to myself    And in this simple way, we offer    To destroy all we can't figure out    In our simple lives, unconscious    We emply our skills from the underground       To seek what we've never seen    To find, what we never knew    To explore deep, inside       Kill me    Kill me won't you    Make me sleep again    Kill me    Kill me won't you       To see what we've never seen    To find what we've never knew    To go where we'd never dared    To explore    Deep...
