The Rose with the Broken Neck

Lonely, I seem, lonely, I lead
Lonely, I feel, lonely, I bleed
Lonely, I trust and lonely I must
Be the rose with a broken neck
The plow on the farm, the train on the track
The tracks on my arm, the train in a wreck
That's when they all seem to swarm, not when you are all alone
In your home with a broken neck
Help myself to a drink, help myself to the sea
The dogs start to moan and the crows start to peck
At my eyes and down at the ground, oh, and it shows
I am the rose with the broken neck
Lonely, I seem, lonely, I lead
Lonely, I feel and lonely, I bleed
Lonely, I trust and lonely, I must
Be the rose with the broken neck
