And in a rose you will find
that truth
Elusive like color
in a graylit sky

from your soul
it flows
from my mind
it crumbles

a far away dream
a forgotten love
faded, like a memory
faded, like your jeans

in this jaded today
wraps your colored tomorrow
and in a moment of ignorance
your mistake is forgiven

free now, but illusioned
the fall looms ahead
blind to its cause
blind to that deep red shade

come lay your head
on the comfort of yesterday

And i, your want of illusion
will take away, your pain and your sorrow
