"We are like roses. If you just grab at us, you'll get a handful of thorns, but if you know where the thorns are and why they protect us you won't get hurt as badly.Only then will you appreciate our beauty."

sugar-coated medicine,

chocolate covered drugs,

bring you to life,

under this dark moon.

I can taste intoxication on your lips.

an addict,

I reach for you again.
