She said, "I want a real rose"
Colors and everyone knows
The dust kicked up from your shoes
Floats like angelical moons
Silhouettes in the corners of your mind
Sublime like the cracks of your smile
Pray that I'll keep you covered
Collapse the trees that shudder
Bleach the color from your clothes
Believe you lover cos she knows
Bleed the blood from your bones
A two-tone baby, stealing love from a stone
Oh, stone, grave for the time spent alone
Oh, stone, brave for the time spent alone
I've waited for you to wander
To justify your needs to squander
You claimed me like a trophy
Distracted ever so slowly
I'll make it up to you one day
I promise I won't wish it away
The island that we live on
Crumbled like lost devotion
Bleach the color from your clothes
Believe you lover cos she knows
Bleed the blood from your bones
A two-tone baby, stealing love from a stone
Oh, stone, grave for the time spent alone
Oh, stone, brave for the time spent alone
Do you love her skin?
So frail you'll never make it divine
Fooling around
And this is for life, this is for life
Summer skin
So pale there's a speck in your eyes
Splitting light
This is for life, this is for life
Oh, stone, grave for the time spent alone
Oh, stone, brave for the time spent alone
