Rose
The sky turns dark
Like a sea of fear
See the dancing pain
Its drawing near
The lightning strikes
The waters fall
Dropping like pain
That's inside of us all
The rain drops fall
On the roads and the pavement
But one little drop
Was not gonna make it
With the last of its strength
It sings out a song
Of the pain its endured
For oh so long
And it falls on a flower
Withering dry
It was going to vanquish
It was going to die
But the drop gave it strength
And soon it grew green
And inside of the bud
Was a beautiful thing
It was red with a texture
Velvet, they say
And the flower that grew
Became famous that day
They call it a rose
Because out of the blue
Came a beautiful thing
That rose up and grew
