Another day, another line to stand in
Another task I let define my soul
Kept chasing what they said was meaning
But never stopped to feel the toll
The sun would rise on painted windows
But I was buried in the screen’s cold glow
Thought I had time to dance tomorrow
But tomorrow don’t always show
She waited by the stream with silence
C F
with flowers falling from her hair.
Dm E
But I was late, caught up in deadlines,
Am A7
didn’t even know she was there.
[Chorus 1]
Dm G
Are you there already, my dark rose,
C F
I thought I had miles left to go?
Dm E
But the petals fall without a sound
Am A7
and now I see what I should’ve known.
Dm G
Are you there already, my dark rose,
E
I blinked and I was [Interlude] old?
[Verse 3]
Am Dm
The road was paved with good intentions
G C
but I was lost inside the race.
F Dm/B
Babylon sells you false ascension
E Am A7
while life keeps waiting face to face.
[End-Chorus]
Dm G
Are you there already, my dark rose,
C F
I thought I had miles left to go?
Dm E
But the scent fades when the moment’s missed
Am A7
and time don’t wait for souls too slow.
Dm G
Are you there already, my dark rose,
E
too late to truly [Outro] know?
