Justin Niebank - Like A Rose lyrics

I was only 13 when daddy died Mama started drinking and my brother just quit trying I'm still bouncing back, heaven only knows How I came out like a rose Ran off with what's his name when I turned 18 Got me out of North Dakota, but it did not change a thing I left it in the yard, all covered up with snow And I came out like a rose Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand Waiting on a bus to some promise land I got a one way ticket as far as it goes And I came out like a rose So I'm headed south to anywhere that ain't so damn cold Where I can warm my heart and shake the chill from my bones It took a while to get here, it's been a long hard road And I came out like a rose Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand Waiting on a bus to some promise land I got a one way ticket as far as it goes And I came out like a rose It took a while to get here, it's been a long hard road And I came out like a rose
