I'm feeling this time as bad as never before
C# Fm Cm
F bleeding wag is fading away
Fm D# Fm D#
Once you needed me for spending delight
C# Fm Cm
But below this funny mask there's a crying face
G# D# Fm
The way that I smile is the way that I cry
D# C# G# D#
But you'll never realize
G# D# Fm
My reputation is the one of a fool
D# C#
Now watch how a poet dies
D#
Hear his cries
Fm C# D# G# D#
And I dedicate my roses to no one
A#m F# G# C# D#
Cause there is no mind to help me to see
Fm C# D# G# D#
The reason we need a light for the lonesome
A#m F# G# C# D# Fm
And no one to drink the blood that I bleed
The poet inside wasn't given a chance
So he had to live apart
And I realize my best friend am I
And not those parasites who try to stare
Into my heart
The way that I feel is the way that I heal
My body and soul and my life
And I know you just think I'm a fool
Now watch how a poet flies
See me rise
And I dedicate my roses to no one
Cause there is no mind to help me to see
The reason we need a light for the lonesome
And no one to drink the blood that I bleed
