Rose In A Wasteland

You're my superhero
You held me close but took me far
Watched my heart like an eagle
Using its wings not to fly but to cover

Hovering hands over my shoulders
I see your soul through your eyes
Your vulnerability to see even

Chorus:
A rose in a wasteland
Holds my vulnerable in pain
Crimson colors line my sheet
It's almost a pastime
Leaving us no chance to win
And when was the race with no compassion

Hidden where you thought I couldn't see
Away with all the others
Steal the heart that belonged to me
But you refuse to give it

Back to happiness you said
Which is faded with the past
Everyone knows
Superheroes never last

Chorus:
A rose in a wasteland
Holds my vulnerable in pain
Crimson colors line my sheet
It's almost a pastime
Leaving us no chance to win
And when was the race with no compassion

You played me like a game
Yet you said you were to blame
I had to realize
Your love to me was all lies

"It wasn't our decision" you said
It was Satan's choice
It wasn't your mistake you said
It was the devil's voice

Chorus:
A rose in a wasteland
Holds my vulnerable in pain
Crimson colors line my sheet, ohh
It's almost a pastime
Leaving us no chance to win
And when was the race with no compassion
