Lyrics - I Smelt Roses (in The Underground) by Watts John

NEARLY
FELL
DOWN
A
BASEMENT
FLOOR
ASI
WEAVED
MY
WAY
THROUGH
THE
WELL
DRESSED
CROWDSIN
SEARCH
OF
YOU.
I
TOOK
HOPE
FROM
THE
SAXOPHONE
THOUGHHER
MOUTH
GREW
COLD
SHE
STILL
BLEW
OUTA
SYMPHONY. . .
THE
SCENE
IS
FAMILIAR.
I
LOOK
AGAIN.
WHEN
I
CAME
HERE
WITH
YOU
BEFORE
IT
WAS
DIFFERENT.
I
SAW
BEAUTY
IN
THIS
WASTED
LANDI
SMELT
ROSES
IN
THE
UNDERGROUNDI
SAW
A
FUTURE
WHEN
YOU
WERE
AROUND.
BUT
NOW
IT'
S
OVER.
THROUGH
THE
DARKNESS
I
CALLED
YOUR
NAMEAS
THE
FRIENDLY
FACES
MODE
THEIR
WAYT0
SEE
THE
GAME.
SOMEONE
STOPPED
ME
AND
ASKED
THE
WAYI
SHRUGGED
AND
SMILED
BUT
SHE
GLARED
AT
MEIMPATIENTLY.
THE
AMERCAN
WAITRESS
STILL
KNOWS
YOUR
NAMEWHEN
I
CAME
HERE
WITH
YOU
BEFORE
IT
WAS
DIFFERENT.
I
SAW
BEAUTY
IN
THIS
WASTED
LANDI
SMELT
ROSES
IN
THE
UNDERGROUNDI
SAW
A
FUTURE
WHEN
YOU
WERE
AROUNDBUT
NOW
IT'
S
OVER.
YOU'
LL
ALWAYS
HAUNT
ME.
