A Rose Alone

(album: Get Over It - 2000)

When she cried,
Felt like her last tear for nothing
It's her life a toss of the coin for everything
The girl began to see
That you don't need just any man
And her pride is a kiss goodbye
On graduation day

She always said
She'd be happier alone
She always said she won't be anybody's
Second hand rose
She's scared, but she dares
She is a rose alone

Daddy says, you can't pay the rent
On a fairy tale
It's her play she'd rather be free
Than be safe in jail
Make or break,
You do what you gotta do
'Cause you can
Taste the wine, it's bittersweet
But the bite still it gets you high

She always said
She'd be happier alone
She always said she won't be
Anybody's secondhand rose
She always said
She'd be happier alone
She's scared, but she dares
To be a rose alone
