Wild Roses Lyrics by Prayers

Baptism of Thieves

2017

How can you love me
How can you love me
How can you love me
When you can't love yourself?

She said
How can you love me
How can you love me
How can you love me
When you can't love yourself?

I said
I'm not trying to please anyone but myself
I said I'm not trying to please anyone but myself
Nothing to prove 'cause this city is mine
Watch the night
Bear witness to the days of my life

Baby, can't you see that I'm living for me?
'Cause there's nothing I want and there's nothing I need
Wild like a rose
[?]
I'm a king in my city and my crown's made of thorns

How can you love me
How can you love me
How can you love me
When you can't love yourself?

She said
How can you love me
How can you love me
How can you love me
When you can't love yourself?

I said
I'm not trying to please anyone but myself
I said I'm not trying to please anyone but myself
Be like a rose
Be careful who you keep close
'Cause the people you help will envy you the most

Speak with conviction when you're talking to me
And don't point fingers if your hands ain't clean
My enemies can't hold a candle to me
'Cause baby I am fire and your love's gasoline

How can you love me when you can't love yourself?
How can you love me when you can't love yourself?
How can you love me when you can't love yourself?
How can you love me when you can't love yourself?
