| | Rose Lyrics Artist(Band):A Perfect Circle
The tempermental Goat, The Snail, while he's feeding on the Rose Stay frozen, compromise What I will I am Bend around the wind Silently thrown about again I'm treading so soft and lightly Compromising my will I am I am, I will So no longer will I Lay down, play dead Play your doe In the headlights locked down And terrified Your deer in the headlights Shut down and horrified when Push comes to pull comes to shove Comes to step around this Self-destructive dance That never would've ended 'til I rose, I roared aloud here I will, I am I am, I will So no longer will I Lay down, play dead, Play this Kneel down Gun-shy martyr, pitiful I rose, I roared I will, I am If you find some error in Rose Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about Rose Meanings and whatnot. | Reviewer: Ashleigh | 12/4/09 I think the reason why artists write songs that are so vague is so everyone can relate to them in some sort of way. This, and all of his songs, have a specific meaning to him and the rest of the band - but for everyone else it can mean anything. That's the beauty of it. In the eye of the beholder | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/25/09 Some of the best songs are often fairly vague. It takes a great artist to write something that so many people can relate to. Whatever the listener is relating the song to, that's what it's about and I think songs are written in this way for that very reason. Stand up | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/11/09 This song is about timidness and shyness. It suggest breaking the shell. To "Roar aloud" and be someone. Not to to be blown around in the wind and manipulated and taken advantage of. Stand and be proud, don't compromise yourself and kneel down to anyone because everyone is that you fear is simply a snail, without threat. Don't compromise your will (as) I am. Well | Reviewer: Nicole | 9/2/09 I've been reading the interpretations and all seem to circle around this idea of revolt, and for some reason I disagree. I don't think this song is much about revolt as it is standing up to someone or something that you fear. Standing up doesn't mean that your revolting, your just not letting the fear leave you "frozen". I get this idea of fear from the terms he use such as "horrified" and "terrified".These words don't pure into me the idea of a need for revolt, rather the idea of someone wanting to escape. No where in this song do I see any true suggestions of someone being wronged to the point of revolting or fighting back. There could be, after all people often seee what they want. APC | Reviewer: Manna | 7/27/09 Its not only the song Rose that I'm saying somthing about. All of APC's song are bloody brilant! I can't get enough of them. Just the music in general is amasing. But when Maynard adds his lyrics and his voice.. I cant even discribe it. Some songs make me love some make me angery as hell. Some make me want to scream and others make me want to cry. The Rose is one that i get angery with. Makes me want to revolt aginst the world. (sounds goffy i know) But i cant help it. its one that I listen to exstreamly loud and scream with as much passion and volume as I can. Afterwards i wipe my tears and go about my day. What this song means to me in my life. | Reviewer: jibz | 4/10/09 I think this song is about realizing the true power you have as a human being. The phrases I AM and I WILL are two of the most powerful phrases known to man. I AM is stating who you are and I WILL is stating what you will do. It is about following through with your own plans which takes courage. It is about making a commitment to never lay down and to always stand your ground. In this song the singer is saying that he will no longer be a gun shy martyr that he is now ready and strong to stand up for what he believes in, even if it means taking the bullet for it. One of my favorites. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/20/08 The abusive relationship is what really sticks out to me, also someone overcoming a battle with depression. Either way, or which ever other way you choose to interpret it, this is a beautiful song. Rosey Vecchia | Reviewer: Kitty | 10/9/08 A Perfect Circle's song is talking mostly about jeordie white's best friend named Rosey Vecchia, she was a supporter of Meynard's life,so he wrote the song about the affections she has been through with him, i heard that they are making a video for this song evn though its very old...but that is wat is about. Hmm... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/15/08 Sounds like someone is submitting to some, seemingly unstoppable, force. Could be a bully through a smaller child's eyes. Could just as well be a drug habit, or a woman's relationship with an abusive spouse. Song starts out with the POV person submitting because they are afraid to cross the line with whatever it is they are dealing with. They have to tread lightly, bend around the wind, or stay frozen to avoid disrupting their particular 'Beast', or risk being thrown around again. They go so far as to compromise who they are so that their situation doesn't worsen. That is until they decide to take a stand, to revolt against what's holding them down. To stand up and roar back in their oppressor's face, because they know that if they let the cycle continue, they will end up being destroyed. They make it very clear they will never again kneel pitifully before someone or something that doesn't deserve that from them. Could be the kid standing up to the bully, and succeeding. Could be the overcoming of the drug habit. Could be the woman leaving the abusive spouse, for good. But that's the beauty of Maynard's work, isn't it? It's not centered on one specific scenario, so anyone who is dealing with a similar situation can gain from it. Bully? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/1/08 I think this song could be about a kid that's getting bullied and after a while he decides not to take it and fights back. Then discovers that the bully is as scared of him now as he was of the bully.
