歌词
[intro]
[verse]
Eyes glued on a blank tv screen,
The nights and days commune,
They fuse and turn into moons
And scratches out my tune
The Tokyo Lights that I once saw,
They spilled and dropped on the floor
[pre-chorus]
It wept and crept and slept 'till it died,
I wonder what happened once you arrived,
Your rose-scented candles and rose-tinted glasses,
They drew me to madness and turned me to ashes
[chorus]
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
Your thorns and leaves you may have shown,
Bricks and stones hurt my soul
Your roots already shown
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
The sunflower in my memory,
The best and worst that could ever be,
And blinded by the lethargy,
[chorus]
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
Your thorns and leaves you may have shown,
The creeping sting already grown,
The lovely stroll left me alone,
Soul-burned scars turned me to stone,
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
sunflower in my memory,
The best or worst I had ever been,
Your warm affection was my sin,
Dust and charcoal on my skin
[guitar bridge]
[verse]
Now nighttime's dark without a light,
Old thoughts prayers come out to bite,
And rips me dry of my delight
The smoldering nights that I now roam,
They turn and twist and break my home
[pre-chorus]
It stayed and it weighed and it shook my core,
I must have imagined what you once swore,
Your weak-willed curtains and weak last will,
It woke me all night and turned me still
[chorus]
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
Your thorns and leaves you may have shown,
The creeping sting already grown,
The lovely stroll left me alone,
Soul-burned scars turned me to stone,
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
sunflower in my memory,
The best or worst I had ever been,
Your warm affection was my sin,
Dust and charcoal on my skin
[fade out]
[pre-chorus without music]
Towering heights from where you came,
Once brought me to life and now brings me shame,
Your beauty a shade of some thing less,
It took my tongue and left me a mess
[acoustic chorus]
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn,
Knives and blades you had to hide,
My heart's bleeding from when you lied,
Our cold facade had to collide,
My tears for you already died,
Ooooooh, Rose Marilyn
A dandelion from my past,
The sweet embrace was not to last,
You went and left and came so fast
