• Thought I would be free, hoped to escape this trap.
    Didn't realize how much you meant to me,
    didn't know I couldn't leave.
    I want to keep going, but still I cry at night.

    Never knew how I was caught,
    couldn't tell
    I should have fought.

    These rose vines keep getting tighter,
    at midnight when the song grows higher,
    I look into your eyes of love,
    I can't fight you when the song plays on.

    You caught me with promises of forever
    That promise turns into a curse
    Forever I am yours, forever caught by you
    Never let me free
    Oh, please just let me go.

    I push against the binds
    The thorns dig into my hands
    I scream while the blood of roses flows
    The blood of roses, blood of roses.
    At midnight, the blood of a rose will flow.

    These red vines keep getting tighter
    In the mid-night when songs go higher
    Stare into my eyes of love
    I can’t fight when the song plays on.

    I thought that I was free,
    could have sworn I had escaped.
    The ties you have around my soul
    is the one thing I regret.
    You have me like a fly,
    so well-caught in your web.

    Even though I run from you,
    I find myself doomed to return.
    Time and time again,
    I long to be held by you.

    These rose vines are getting tighter,
    At midnight the song rises higher
    I’m looking for eyes of love,
    and refuse to fight as the music plays.
