If you keep changing yourself
Then soon you’ll be somebody else
And the end of the string
Would be a rose, is a rose, it is a dying thing
While all I can promise is to stay like this always
And by all other names just as sweet

I wish all you would wish
Was a house with a yard full of flying fish
And the bell that I’d ring
Would be a rose, is a rose, it could be anything

While all I can promise is to stay like this always
And by all other names just as sweet

I will crack you open just to keep you closer
‘Cause without you a rose is just a rose
And I will swallow the vomit just to keep you
Coming ‘cause without you I’m so hollow
