    Roses bleeding in a dome
    *
    I gifted you with my loving heart
    You froze it under your jealousy
    I gave you my love so intimate and tender
    You violated my virgin valva 
    -
    I didn't cry, I didn't shout stop
    Loving heart so blind thinks it's okay 
    First penetration is never comfortable
    Love so blind didn't see the warning signs
    -
    Gifted you with roses 
    You boxed them in a dome
    Loving heart didn't sob nor squeal
    Found my way home before dying in love
    -
    Accompanied by your lies and slander
    Accompanied by your lies and jealousy
    I swallow my pride, love doesn't love me
    My roses bleeding in a dome as I leave
    Didn't look back I'm only eighteen I'll love again
