Two Gallants - Trembling of the Rose Lyrics

Why must it come to this?
You disown me with a kiss
Another number on your list
Guess, that's me

But oh, girl what have I done?
Another fool blind by the sun
Now which way shall I run
Aimlessly?

But look out nowI can't see straight
Just woke up and it's getting late
And I'm as full of hate
As I used to be

But in the hour of my demise
I'll recall your empty eyes
You know I died
The day you set me free

But what good is livin' for
When there's no knock on the door
No shelter from the world
Against me

But if you comfort me 'til dawn
I'd sing your lonesome song
Pack my things
I'll be gone vaguely

But with your high heels and your mace
You tell me I'm out of place
Rip my eyes out of my face with ease
And if I had one inch of pride

You took that too
When you said goodbye
You know I died
The day you set me free

Well, I dreamt of you last night
And I woke to curse my life
Good god, I'm sick of sight
Can't you see?

But I must remain composed
'Neath the trembling of the rose
But you left me so exposed
Faithlessly

But who knows what is right or wrong?
Paid your debt and carry on
No, I don't belong
That's plain to see

I guess I'll take your stress in stride
The hill is steep, the water's wide
You know I died
The day you set me free
