roses - Lewis Watson

When you’re out there in the cold

Thinking that growing up is getting old

Looking back always knew which hand to fold

But now you’ve moved on

You’re not the person that you used to know

But you don’t have to do this on your own

Lost in the emptiness you call your home

Just know that over time the

Colours stay

Longer than black and grey

Know that you’ll be okay

Forget all the moments

That you were broken

And blamed yourself

Wished you were someone else

Until you cried for help

You are not hopeless

Without rain there’s no roses

When you’re hiding in the dark

Turn on the light and let the feeling pass

Right now you’re living like you’re made of glass

Promise in time that all the

Colours stay

Longer than black and grey

Know that you’ll be okay

Forget all the moments

That you were broken

And blamed yourself

Wished you were someone else

Until you cried for help

You are not hopeless

Without rain there’s no roses

Even in summer

I need the long nights

Of mid December rain

And when it gets colder

I promise I’ll keep you warm

Colours stay

Longer than black and grey

Know that you’ll be okay

Forget all the moments

That you were broken

And blamed yourself

Wished you were someone else

Until you cried for help

You are not hopeless

Without rain there’s no roses
