Roses for the Dead Songtext
von Funeral for a Friend

And I wanna hear everyone of you
Jump
What′d we want?
Sing it

(Just to say we're sorry)
For the black eyes and bleedin′ lips
When it's hard to forget
How many lies we told
Or how we'd grow
Before I said goodbye
So let′s scrape our knees on the playground

It′s not your fault
You feel okay
When It's too late in the day
West what? (It′s not your fault)
You feel betrayed
And can't come out to play


I never listened to a word
You never said
I never listened to a word
You never said

Wastin′ the hours now
'Cause we′re all suckers for tragedies
We'll start this over again
When you bring us to our knees

As sunrise comes
And the story will sell
A few hundred papers
So we'll follow you (up!)

It′s not your fault
You feel okay
It′s too late in the day
West what? (It's not your fault)
You feel betrayed
Can′t come out to play

I never listened to a word
You never said
I never listened to a word
You never said


So raise your hands up high
And let this rain pour on
So raise your hands up high
And wash us away, yeah-yeah

Like innocence and childbirth
You look just like your mother
And when you look just like your father

Forgive him our father
Your son is smilin'
So lay roses aroun-round you
Thank you
Alright so this is one we′ve never ever played to an audience of people
An audience of, The people
This one's called hospitality
