Final Fantasy 9 - Rose of may with lyrics
текст песни

Rose of May

Her heart underneath
Cries quietly
This part of me
I choose not to see

What lives must I take
For fealty’s sake
How much blood must stain
This warrior’s blade

War leaves its trail in moonlight so pale
Its shadows, they flow in rivers, in rivers
So put on my mask, I’ll go where they ask
So I might one again see the roses of May

Staining my soul and stinging my eyes
The red on my hands won’t wash away, wash away
No where to run from what I have done
I’m no longer, no longer a rose of May

Fate holds the blade before you
Mirrored in maiden’s eyes
Far from myself I fly into the perilous skies
And they said
Follow the blade before you
Fear fall and courage rise
Leave all your tears behind you
Far from where innocence lies

Cage of the kings
No need for wings
So turn them to stone
From roses to bone

When you look at me
What do you see
This costume I weave
Disfiguring me

Storm clouds creeping closer
Danger is drawing near
Why am I not protecting all that I once held dear
And you said
Break free from all that holds you
Kings hand and maiden’s tear
Run now into my arms
Together we’ll conquer our fears

Led here by fate
No longer afraid
So here now I lay
My roses of May
