about

In their first release, the single "Love & War" and "Leave Me Alone", Of The Roses simultaneously lament and celebrate what it means to be one's self in today's world, a mostly digitally-lived one in which half-witnesses paint their own shareable portraits of us as much as we do ourselves. Through unrelenting pop guitar hooks and a nitty-gritty undertone, Serenity Autumn and Josh Delarosa take matters back into their own hands.

lyrics

TAKE, WINK, SMILE AND FUCK
TAKE, WINK, SMILE AND FUCK ME RIGHT
BREAK, WINK, SMILE AND TRUST
BRAKE, WEAK SMILE AND OUT OF SIGHT

AND OH NO I FOUND A BODY
AND HE LOOKS LIKE ANYBODY

ALL IS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR
AND ISN’T THAT WHAT MEN ARE FOR?
TAKE NO PRISONERS
LEAVE NO SURVIVORS
STEAL FROM THE RICH
AND GIVE TO THE POOR
AND ISN’T THAT WHAT MEN ARE FOR?
TAKE NO PRISONERS
LEAVE NO SURVIVORS

MAN, I LOVE HER BRAINS
ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY’RE INSIDE OUT
AND I’M A USER, NO ABUSER
SO UGLY BETTIES CAN’T BE CHOOSERS

AND OH NO ANOTHER BODY
AND SHE LOOKS LIKE ANYBODY

ALL IS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR
ISN’T THAT WHAT WOMEN ARE FOR?
TAKE NO PRISONERS
LEAVE NO SURVIVORS
NO REMORSE AND NO REFRAIN
AND SILLY GIRLS ARE ALL THE SAME
TAKE NO PRISONERS
LEAVE NO SURVIVORS
