One Last Rose

Here I've been since the dawn of time
And here I stayed just like I should
But as you went to reach your prime
Do what I never thought you would
Well, careless is the way you live
And now that we are here
When I can come to you and give

This one last rose
As a sign that there's so much work for you to do
Quietly blooming on the dirt
Just one last rose
May it be way you need to know what's coming through
Just in time for you to avert

Now time has passed, you ignored the signs
And tried to mold me to your needs
You should know I can't be confined
Why would you bite the hand that feeds?
Well, selfish is the way you live
And finally now we're here
When I can come to you and give

This one last rose
It is clear to me now, you have no self-respect
How could I think we're alike?
Just one last rose
Denial can't change laws of cause and effect
The fist of fate is about to strike

This one last rose
Now lies trampled in pieces, denied of compassion
How considerate you are
Just one last rose
Lines have been crossed, that demands a reaction
Don't you think you went too far?
This one last rose
I could say that I'm sorry for you, but at this point
I'm sure that would be a lie
Just one last rose
Now I'll finally take the best choice for myself
Even if it means you'll die
Even if it means you'll die
