rose tattoo

The pictures tell the story, this life had many shades
Id wake up every morning and before Id start each day
Id take a drag from last nights cigarette that smoldered in its tray
Down a little something and then be on my way
I traveled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
I was guided by a compass I saw beauty to the north
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces on my own
I had these memories all around me so I wouldnt be alone
Some may be from showing up
Others are from grwoing up
Sometimes I was so messed up and didnt have a clue
I aint winning no one over
I wear it just for you
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
This ones for the mighty sea, mischief, gold and piracy
This ones for the man that raised me, taught me sacrifice and bravery
This ones for our favourite game, black and gold , we wave the flag
This ones for my family name with pride Ill wear it to the grave
Some may be from showing up
Others are from grwoing up
Sometimes I was so messed up and didnt have a clue
I aint winning no one over
I wear it just for you
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
This one means the most to me
It stays here for eternity
A ship that always stays the course
An anchor for my every choice
A rose that shines down from above
I signed and sealed these words in blood
I heard them once, sung in a song
It played again and we sang along
Youll always be here with me
Even if youre gone
Youll always have my love
Our memory will live on
Some may be from showing up
Others are from grwoing up
Sometimes I was so messed up and didnt have a clue
I aint winning no one over
I wear it just for you
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
With pride Ill wear it to the grave for you
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Ive got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Signed and sealed in blood, I would die for you
