There was a rose
A flower decayed
She should be punished
For the love she betrayed.
No matter how great was her regret
She couldn't erase what was done
All she wanted was to be gone
She drank and drank
She was satiated and sank
In her dark and chilly fortress

They have weakened my refuge
Someone is trying to brake in
He touched her soul
But did not see her sin
A long time ago she wished for his embrace
But she couldn't dare to chase
He nurtured her faithfully
Opened completely
Without restraint she flourished and grew
Together giving all they had
They overcame all the bad
Yet secretly there was a wall being built
She couldn't handle all the guilt
Productive growth and vegetation
Requires photosynthesis without limitation
Now there was so little light
The rose started to gloom
And it wasn't a pleasant sight
Closed again in the fortress
And no one was willing to break it down.
Once there was a blossoming rose

Once there was love.
