I am the thorns of your rose, babe
I am your throne but you wear no crown
And if your heart was a soldier
I'd be the war that brought it down
And how can you make no sound
When you speak so loud
While my thoughts are bombs
And your mum knows it for sure
And your teeth and the smoke
And your seeds and your love won't grow
In your attic everything's paused
Now why are you speaking loud
I can hear every sound
From your soul, from your mouth
From the beach chair you hide
And the paint you bought
Won't erase what you're not
So don't pretend I didn't know
I am the thorns of your rose, babe
I am your throne but you wear no crown
And if your heart was a soldier
I'd be the war that brought it down
How can I not make sound
When my thoughts are so loud
And my voice is a bomb
That I want it to explode
And my visions, my flaws
And my dreams and my hopes won't stop
Don't pretend you didn't know
And my visions, my flaws
And my dreams and my hopes don't stop
Don't pretend you didn't know
I can't be paused
Are you on pause?
I can't be paused
Are you on pause?
I can't be paused
