caleb hyles - red like roses lyrics

[intro: caleb hyles]
ooh

[verse: caleb hyles]
red like roses fills my dreams
and brings me to the place you rest
white is cold and always yearning
burdened by a royal test
black, the beast descends from shadows
yellow beauty burns gold
[instrumental bridge]

[verse 1: caleb hyles]
i couldn’t take it, couldn’t stand another minute
couldn’t bear another day without you in it
all of the joy that i had known for all my life
was stripped away from me the minute that you died
to have you in my life was all i ever wanted
but now without you, i’m a soul forever haunted
can’t help but feel that i had taken you for granted
no way in h+ll that i can ever comprehend this
i wasn’t dreaming when they told me you were gone
i was wide awake and feeling that they had to be wrong
how could you leave me when you swore that you would stay?
now i’m trapped inside a nightmare that i wake to everyday
it’s like a movie, but there’s not a happy ending
every scene fades black and there’s no pretending
this little fairytale doesn’t seem to end well
there’s no knight in shining armor that will wake me from the spell

[pre+chorus: caleb hyles & casey lee williams]
i know you didn’t plan this (oh)
you tried to do what’s right (oh)
but in the middle of this madness (oh)
i’m the one (i’m the one, i’m the one)
left to win this fight
[chorus: caleb hyles with casey lee williams]
red like roses
fills my head with dreams and finds me
always closer
to the emptiness and sadness
that has come to take the place of you

[verse 2: casey lee williams]
i know you’re broken down by anger and by sadness
you feel i’ve left you in a world that’s full of madness
wish i could talk to you, if only for a minute
make you understand the reasons why i did it
i wanna tell you that you’re all that ever mattered
want you to know that, for eternity, i’m shattered
i tried so hard just to protect you but i failed to
and, in a prison of abandonment, i’ve jailed you
i never planned that i would leave you there alone
i was sure that i would see you when i made it back home
and all the times i swore that it would be okay
now i’m nothing but a liar and you’re thrown into the fray
this bedtime story ends with misery ever after
the pages are torn and there’s no final chapter
i didn’t have a choice, i did what i had to do
i made a sacrifice but forced a bigger sacrifice on you

[pre+chorus: casey lee williams]
i know you’ve lived a nightmare
i caused you so much pain
but baby, please don’t do what i did
i don’t want (i don’t want, i don’t want)
you to waste your life in vain
[chorus: caleb hyles with casey lee williams]
red like roses
fills my head with dreams and finds me
always closer
to the emptiness and sadness
that has come to take the place of you

[bridge: caleb hyles, casey lee williams, and ]
you’re not the only one who needed me
i thought you understood
you were the one i needed
and you left me as i always feared you would
would i change it if i could?

and no matter what i do
nothing ever takes the place of you

[guitar solo]

[chorus: caleb hyles with casey lee williams]
red like roses
fills my head with dreams and finds me
always closer
to the emptiness and sadness
that has come to take the place of you
