Rose of May lyrics

her heart underneath

cries quietly

this part of me

I choose not to see

what lives must I take

for fealty's sake?

how much blood must stain

this warrior's blade?

war leaves its trail

in moonlight so pale

its shadows they flow

in rivers, in rivers

so put on my mask

I'll go where they ask

so I might once again see the

Roses of May

Staining my soul and stinging my eyes

the red on my hands

won't wash away, wash away

no where to run from what I have done

I'm no longer, no longer

a Rose of May

fate holds the blade before you

mirrored in maiden's eyes

far from myself I fly

into the perilous skies

and they said

follow the blade before you

fear fall and courage rise

leave all your tears behind you

far from where innocence lies

Cage of the kings

No need for wings

So turn them to stone

from roses to bone

when you look at me

what do you see?

this costume I weave

disfiguring me...

(chorus A)

Storm clouds are creeping closer

danger is drawing near

why am I not protecting all that

I once held dear?

and you said

break free from all that holds you

kings hand and maiden's tear

run now into my arms

together we'll conquer our fears

Led here by fate

No longer afraid

So here now I lay

My Roses of May
