Verse 1
I'm confused and conflicted
Secretly addicted
Without a clue of how I'm to
Assist any afflicted
Broke and overwhelmed
Equating life with hell
I know I haven't handled
Too much in my life well
I live with few regrets
Always try to see the best
I recognize I'm fortunate and
Arguably I am blessed

Prechorus
I'm not gonna sit here
Like I'm a deer 
In the headlights
Like I often do
On most nights
I've slept an hour
Maybe two
Since I last saw your face
My thoughts kept on running
And my heart soon 
Then joined the race

Chorus
Whether you're the rose or the thorn
There's nothing more beautiful in the room
I've been picking flowers
But it's you I want to see bloom

Verse 2
I never knew
Suggesting compassion
Could drag me so far down
Apparently anyone looking at me
Assumes the circus must be in town
Supposed to be mine
You made me a mime
I'm quietly boxing myself in
She's not just the original sinner
She's God's original sin

Repeat Prechorus and Chorus

Bridge
Why does my effusion
Cause such crazed confusion
What can I do to convince you
That my love is no illusion?
Whether you're the rose or the thorn
There's nothing more beautiful in the room
I've been picking flowers
But you're the one that I want to see bloom

Outro
I'm not gonna sit here
Like a deer in the headlights
The way that I often do
On most nights, most nights
The truth is that you are what I live for
I need you more than I need to breathe
My passion is deeper than the Earth's core
In spite of what you choose to believe 
Whether you're the rose or the thorn 
There's nothing more beautiful in the room 
I've been picking flowers but
It's you I want to see bloom
