[Verse]
G#m Cb
When I called on my nursemaid
G#m Cb E
Come sit by my side
G#m Cb
But she cuts through my ribcage
G#m Cb F# Gm
And pushes the pills deep in my eyes
G#m Cb
The taste was much sweeter
G#m Cb E
Than chlorine and wine
G#m Cb
And my doctor’s unable
G#m Cb F# Gm
To cut through cable that leads to my mind
G#m Cb
In spite of the winter
G#m Cb E
There’s ways to keep warm
G#m Cb
Whatever you give me
G#m Cb F# Gm
Please know that I’ll ask you for more
G#m Cb
The day I stopped swimming
G#m Cb E
And came out of the tide
G#m Cb
I’d never felt so uncomfortably numb
G#m Cb F# Gm
Here by your side

Black rose on the bed

Turn me to fire

Black rose in the vein

Don’t lay me down

Under the rocks where I found
My place in the ground

Black rose in the vein
