Dead Rose

I'm a Stranger to the dark, hideaway, we say we don't want a broken heart,
I'd rather be ashamed of your scars, Runaway we say we don't want love

She, an elegant woman, daughter of Jehovah
Men call her, but she acts as if she's deaf
Born in Argentina in the city of Córdoba
Friends invite her to nights out, but she doesn't go
She gets up to pray at morning services
An exemplary young woman according to her neighbors
She doesn't speak like an Argentine or dress like one
Because she doesn't care what they think of her
She loves flowers, always smells them
Like someone who grinds coffee in the morning
She's not in love with any fool
She had a past relationship that no longer hurts her
So simple, doesn't dress expensively, pretty and nice (bro)
That's the weirdest thing, a natural beauty, doesn't even wear earrings
That's why she has so many suitors after her
But she runs from temptation and sin
Waiting on God for the right man
Physically, she wouldn't have liked him
But he arrived with flowers, that shameless one

I'm a Stranger to the dark, hideaway, we say we don't want a broken heart,
I'd rather be ashamed of your scars, Runaway we say we don't want love as you are

He always arrived with flowers as she liked, subtly conquering her
She didn't realize the monster she was falling for
Blinded by each arrangement he brought
He was an expert in the art of lying, they got married and had children to sum it up
In that hell, she began to consume herself because he always came home drunk to argue
The punches to the face weren't enough, abusing her physically and verbally
Insensitive to the word 'stop,' killing her will to live slowly
But the next day she forgave him when he showed up with a bouquet of flowers
It was as if each blow was forgotten, as if everything turned to nothing
And the next day, nothing, the same routine, drinking, blows, flowers as medicine
One day he will kill her, a neighbor would say, look at the problem that's coming

I'm a Stranger to the dark, hideaway, we say we don't want a broken heart,
I'd rather be ashamed of your scars, Runaway we say we don't want love

Another one of those terrible nights, it was incredible, her body couldn't take it anymore
He hit her against the walls in front of the kids, then said he wouldn't do it again
Makeup couldn't cover the bruises on her beautiful face, she never thought she'd need it
So much pain made the flower wither without love, without the sun visiting
Woman, today I want to advise you that you are very valuable, you must stand up for yourself
The man who loves you will never mistreat you
What's forever must last forever

But you, you will never hit her
Look, you will never humiliate her
You will never deceive her
You won't convince her with flowers
Because finally, she has left you
Now you realize you were wrong
You made a fatal mistake
Because now you bring flowers, but to her funeral

I want to dedicate this song
To every woman in the world who has been mistreated in some way, physically or verbally
It's time for you to stand up for yourself, you have a beautiful purpose for which God created you, no one can mistreat you, stand up for yourself

I'm a Stranger to the dark, hideaway, we say we don't want a broken heart
