Collaboration for a competition on MusesMuse. A lyric take on the promise, fulfillment and decay of romantic love.
Someone once called my songs "acoustic punk in slow motion." To most people it just seems folky but with some vinegar.

Lyrics
ch:
Love is hiding, then it's climbing
Then it's flying, far from where it grows
Falls apart and then it might come back again
Love is like the petals of the rose
v1
He bought me the bud of a rose
Saying, See how this flower shows
Our love is like the petals of the rose
It may look small, and nothing yet
But give it time and do not fret
Our love is like the petals of the rose
v2
From a dark beating crimson heart
Comes a gift from Mother Nature's art
Our love is like the petals of the rose
Soon the layers of beauty will burst
Like a ballerina, well rehearsed
Our love is like the petals of the rose
ch:
Love is hiding, then it's climbing
Then it's flying, far from where it grows
Falls apart and then it might come back again
Love is like the petals of the rose
v3
Feels so strong, looks so delicate
Tender couple, so affectionate
Our love is like the petals of the rose
Dishes flying, shattered on the door
Petals drying, scattered on the floor
Our love is like the petals of the rose
ch:
Love is hiding, then it's climbing
Then it's flying, far from where it grows
Falls apart and then he might come back again
Love is like the petals of the rose
