Petals from a Rose Eventually Wither to Black Lyrics

In the land of the craven
Supremely lacking valor
Afraid to verbalize
Secure and safe in the coward's den
A face of a lion
But deer of heart
Stoic by nature
Recreant at birth...birth
Recreant at birth

Scurry x2
Coward x2
Scurry x2
Coward x4

Sure as the rain and the coming storm
Petals from a rose eventually wither to black

Subsist in sorrow
Others must be the ones to pay
In your maniacal carnival
This show goes down by your standards alone
Pathetic, weak of mind
Missin' too much to list
Behind the curtain, nervous
Unbelievably empowered...a bit
Empowered

Sure as the tides rise and the moon eclipses
Petals from a rose eventually wither to black
Wither to black

Animal gone wrong
Animal long gone
Inept misfit
Social cripple
Pitiless
Damn inglorious
Sick as fuck
Gunning anywhere
Speak not their names
Nor their family line
Bury them deep in the confines of history

Scurry x2
Coward x2
Scurry x2
Coward x2

Sure as absolute judgment besets you
Petals from a rose eventually wither to black
Be assured that your end day becomes you
Petals from a rose always wither to black
To black
Wither to black
