Rose Tab

Don't disturb the beast
The temperamental
Goat, the snail
While he's feeding on
The rose
Stay frozen
Compromise what
I will, I am

Bend around the wind
Silently
Thrown about
Again I'm treading so
Soft and
Lightly
Compromising my
Will, I am

I am, I will
So no longer
Will I lay down
Play dead, play your doe

In the headlights
Locked down and terrified
Your deer in the headlights
Shot down and horrified

When push comes to pull comes to shove
Comes to step around this
Self-destructive dance that
Never would've ended till

I rose
And I
Roared aloud here
I will, I am

I am, I will
So no longer
Will I lay down
Lay dead, play this
Kneel down, gun-shy
Martyr, pitiful
And I rose and I roared
I will, I am
