Black Roses Lyrics

Purple and scarred
That’s the color that I’ll be in my heart, in my heart, in my heart
When you are done and dusted with me

I fall apart
When I watch you touch yourself, oh, my skin, my skin, my skin
I know you’re tired of sticking to me

Deep in black roses, take these doses
I’m falling victim to black roses

Got a burning desire, gonna step into the blue fire
Touching your lips with my skin, I’m on another level
I can’t let go

So ??? my sin
Like an angel with the dirty wings
Tainted by tastes of the soul, this is another level
I need to know

Deep in black roses, take these doses
I’m falling victim to black roses
Black roses (x2)
I’m falling victim to black roses

You’re turning me off
??? ‘cause you keep turning me on, you’re turning me on
You’re turning me off

Black roses, golden doses (x3)
Black roses (x2)

Deep in black roses, take these doses
I’m falling victim to black roses
Black roses (x2)
I’m falling victim to black roses
Black roses (x2)
I’m falling victim to black roses
Black roses (x6)

Cover art for Black Roses lyrics by Charli XCX

To me this song sounds like it's about lost love. Like when you get roses and you let them dry because they meant something to you. And pretty much all the lyrics point to a partner that is tired of the other person. No more pretty, colorful roses for her, all she has left is "black roses".
