From the recording Thy Merciful Teeth
Lyrics
ROSE IN A ROSE
In the age of gold you were dust on the bricks
In the age of stone you were king of the sticks
In the age of architects you were homeless
you had nothing left, nothing but a rose in a rose
In the age of difference you were always the same
In the age of innocence you were always to blame
In the age of big dreams, you had nightmares
and you couldn't sleep, till the morning rose in a rose
In the age of wolves you were stuck on the lamb
In the age of pearls you were stuck in a clam
In the age of simplicity you were full of shit
but there in the ditch you became a rose in a rose
