This song is about how a girl that got hurt really, really bad in a previous relationship. She's dead inside, or more so like a black rose. She was truly in love with someone else, then moved quickly to a new relationship. The new guy (one of the band members I'm assuming) is trying so hard to make her see that he is different. He's trying to make her "grow" again. But she's not trying she just wants to be hollow inside, maybe not wants to be, but she got hurt so bad she's scare to do it again. "Black rose your thorns are cutting into me for the last time
Black rose I watched your petals wilt away I couldn't bring you back to life" is saying he's done trying with her. He's done putting so much into their relationship, and he basically watched her die. Not literally.
