(Verse)
It's hard to see souls get hurt,
So many lives twisted and burnt.
After betrayal and depression kicks in,
Their lives will turn directly to sin.

(Verse)
Alienated and shunned by the rest,
Now they're put to life's greatest test.
Staying alive, while wishing they'd die!
Thorns of life, forget cyanide!

(Chorus)
Life like a rose! Thorns in my back!
Petals so soft, easily cracked!
Simply destroying the joys in their life!
Left with nothin except sin in their sight!
Whoa! oh... life like a rose...
Whoa! oh... life like a rose...
Oh... life like a rose...

(Verse)
A ray of light shines within the hate,
Someone who cares hopefully not to late.
Petals bloom, sin dispersed and then,
Thorns fade, life can start again!

(Chorus)
Life like a rose! Thorns in my back!
Petals so soft, Easily cracked!
Simply destroying the joys in their life!
Left with nothin except sin in their sight!
Whoa! oh... life like a rose...
Whoa! oh... life like a rose...
Oh... life like a rose...
