Scarlet Rose
I saw her running from the dark
Wishing someone would light a spark in her heart
As the darkness consumes
The thought of you is lost to the silence
We watched her grow old from the inside out
Helpless to the demons she couldn't live without
Oh my God, how could we be so blind?
It wasn't till that night
I realized what she kept inside
She tried to hide
God knows she tried...
I've been to a few dark places
Lost sight of who I was
I missed the point
When you started changing
Hopeless without a cause
We used to be something more than
Walking shadows and empty shells
Life once grew in this garden
Until the sun fell
How selfish of me
To write a song about you
About the broken me
I don't want sympathy
I just want to keep alive your memory
Like how your smile used to set the captives free
Or when we used to sing sad songs
Till the sun came up
I couldn't get enough
Too young too soon to fade away
I wish you were still here today
It will be okay
I can't tell if the pain just got to you
Or if you felt alone with those close to you
Her blue eyes fade to grey
The blood pours from her veins
Her soul arrives at heaven's gates
Her body's left to decay
And all those will gather around and say
"I remember this, I remember that"
"I always thought she was okay"
Her presence ignites a fire in their hearts
She had their love right from the start
The choice she made, affects us all the same
It's a world without you
In our hearts you remain
Even though we feel this pain right now
It could never amount
to the love you poured out
You're always on my mind
I lost my dear friend tonight
How selfish of me
To write a song about you
About the broken me
I don't want sympathy
I just want to keep alive your memory
Like how your smile used to set the captives free
Or when we used to sing sad songs
Till the sun came up
I couldn't get enough
Too young too soon to fade away
I wish you were still here today
In my memories
You will stay the same
All the smiles
All the pain
I won't let this tragedy
Leave a stain on your perfect name
You will always be my dearest friend
A Scarlet Rose in a sea of grey
Even though you're gone
In my heart
You will remain the same!
In loving memory of Nicole Tapia
