You feed this disease which you shelter underneath the scars
And dream of better things rendered helpless by those wicked charms
But please don't believe when I say it's hard to breathe
Save me
Even as you break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone
Praise me
Turn your back and hate me
Every time you waste me
Keep me underneath your thumb
You bleed on the sheets, whisper softly how you love the stars
Then plead on your knees, pledge your promises to do no harm
But please just let me be, I still find it hard to breathe
Save me
Even as you break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone
Praise me
Turn your back and hate me
Every time you waste me
Keep me underneath your thumb
Save me
Even as you break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone
Praise me
Turn your back and hate me
Every time you waste me
Keep me underneath your thumb
Save me
Don't turn your back and break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone

What is the meaning behind Roses lyrics?
When we explore how the lyrics were meant to make us feel, Seether's song 'Roses' explores the emotional struggles and mixed emotions of a toxic relationship through its use of strong metaphors that include 'rape' and 'break' to show how people experience violation and control. The lyrics of Roses focus on five main emotional states which include heartbreak and anguish and despair and anger and self-examination. The song shows how emotional distress and harmful relationships and mixed feelings create importance for listeners. The lyrics contain explicit and graphic depictions of sexual violence through their repeated use of the word 'rape' and multiple instances of disturbing visual content.
These elements are considered too intense and inappropriate for any audience under 17. ✔️
