Discover the story of the song > Roses – Against The Current

The protagonist is waiting all night for her partner to come home, but he never shows up. She hates sleeping alone and watches as the roses she gave him wither away. She wishes her memories of him would also fade away. She misses the nights they spent together under street lights when they were in love and felt young forever. Even though people tell her it will get better with time, she still longs for him and nobody else's eyes shine the same way as his did. In the end, she still waits for him to come home, hoping that the lipstick she left on his face will stay red like the roses she laid on his grave. She misses everything about their relationship and wishes things could be the way they used to be.
