The crimson tide is
flowing through your
fingers as you sleep
The promise of a clean
regime are promises we
keep
Do you like it rough I
ask, and are you up to
task?
The calicos of Pettibon
where cultures come to
clash
Several of my best
friends wear, the colors
of the crown
And Mary wants to build
it up, and Sherry wants
to tear it all, back
down, girl
The savior of your light
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses
tonight
The cross between my
former queen, her
legendary stare
The holy tears of
Ireland, a lovely cross
to bear
Several of my best
friends know, the
secrets of this town
Mary wants to raise it
up, and Sherry wants to
spin it all around, girl
The sailors of the night
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses
tonight
Several of my best
friends wear, the colors
of the crown
And Mary wants to fill
it up, and Sherry wants
to tear it all back
down, girl
The saviour of your light
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses
Hey, yeah, we all want
the rose you know
I said hey, yeah, show
us love before you go
Say I will, then I say I
want to the story knows
that I will never taunt
you
Hey, yeah, we all want
the rose you know
I said hey, yeah, show
us love before you go
Say I will, then I say I
want to the story knows
that I will always haunt
you
