Cut me while I’m red
Gift me as I’m dead
Blossomed in full bloom
Else I decay, fade away
And turn to gray
Like a rose blooming red I violently dread
My inevitable death, petals fall within a breath
Take the cutters to my limbs
Prune me down so I can live
Shave the thorns out of my life
Only worthy in my prime
Tear me to pieces
Make me your gift
Severed arms seen in a vase
Fingers falling in their place
When my petals finish falling I expect you to discard me
Do not hesitate to throw me to the wind to die again
This isn’t the way I thought I would be
Intoxicated and hated by everyone I see
My dreams are tainted by all of these missing memories
Truth is I’m casting the blame on anyone else but me
Cut me while I’m red
Gift me while I’m dead
Show me what I’m worth
Take me there in a hearse
My value relies on the eyes that see me while I’m dying
My pain is only as real as the eyes that see me crying
Like a rose blooming red I violently dread
My inevitable death, petals fall within a breath
Take the cutters to my limbs
Prune me down so I can live
Shave the thorns out of my life
Only worthy in my prime
Tear me to pieces
Make me your gift
Severed arms seen in a vase
Fingers falling in their place
When my petals finish falling I expect you to discard me
Do not hesitate to throw me to the wind to die again
Pour salt in these slices
Feeding these vices
Misery and pain
Dissect me, reflect me and cut me up
Carve me into bits
Leave nothing left for me
And spill me till I’m dry
Drain me of everything
Rip me apart
Show me my wounds
Yeah, feel this anguish
I am nothing if not all the eyes that cry to my corpse
Come close and feel this suffering
While I’m still red
