House Full Of Roses.

Unpublished Works, © 2001, Bill Pauley Jr.*

House Full Of Roses.

She wakes herself up crying,
To another day in hell,
It could be he’s not lying,
O’, but it’s just as well,
Each sacrifice she’s making,
Is deeper than the rest,
There’s only so much taking,
Before there’s nothing left,

And she can’t explain it herself,
She couldn’t believe it from anyone else,

She’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain,
The only thing she knows is,
He says… he’ll never do it again,
But the consequence it poses,
Is driving her insane,
She’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain,

She falls asleep at night crying,
Another day in hell,
It could be he’s not trying,
O’, but it’s just as well,
She knows her heart is bleeding,
Her love for him is dead,
She knows she should be leaving,
Because there’s nothing left,

And she can’t believe it herself,
She couldn’t explain it to anyone else,

She’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain,
The only thing she knows is,
He says… he’ll never do it again,
But the consequence it poses,
Is driving her insane,
She’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain,

O’, and the roses grow deeper and deeper,
And the meaning grows weaker and weaker,
They no longer mean that he needs her,
He’s trying his best just to keep her,

She’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain,
The only thing she knows is,
She’s sure… he’ll only do it again,
And the consequence it poses,
Is driving her insane,
She’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain,

O’, she’s got a house full of roses,
And a heart full of pain.
