"Rose" lyrics

Place your conscience on me (it's too heavy, it's too heavy)
You've been barking so loud the whole town knows we're guilty
Been feeding into arrogance, slipping off my skin like the others did
Sinners and saints lie side by side
Time after time we wake up dressed in black but went to bed in white

Because I'm passive aggressive when I'm alone with myself
And then I'm downright possessive if I'm with anyone else
You should know by now that I'm a red flag through a rose lense
And I'll let you down again

My head will always be a wishing well
You throw a penny in and hope for anything, but nothing ever happens
I'm not your genie in a bottle or a shooting star
All that you'll ever find within me is a tell tale heart
And I'll keep pounding at your brain from underneath the floorboards

Because I'm passive aggressive when I'm alone with myself
And then I'm downright possessive if I'm with anyone else
You should know by now, that I'm a red flag through a rose lense
And I'll let you down again

Here I go again making empty promises
Here I go again saving face with all your friends
Here I go again facedown when the party ends
Here I go again and here I go again

Because I'm passive aggressive when I'm alone with myself
And then I'm downright possessive if I'm with anyone else

Because I'm passive aggressive when I'm alone with myself
And then I'm downright possessive if I'm with anyone else
You should know by now, that I'm a red flag through a rose lense
And I'll let you down again
