D#m C# D#m C#
I'm feeling this time as bad as never before
B D#m A#m
D# bleeding wag is fading away
D#m C# D#m C#
Once you needed me for spending delight
B D#m A#m
But below this funny mask there's a crying face
F# C# D#m
The way that I smile is the way that I cry
C# B F# C#
But you'll never realize
F# C# D#m
My reputation is the one of a fool
C# B
Now watch how a poet dies
C#
Hear his cries
D#m B C# F# C#
And I dedicate my roses to no one
G#m E F# B C#
Cause there is no mind to help me to see
D#m B C# F# C#
The reason we need a light for the lonesome
G#m E F# B C# D#m
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
