The song (or album) written to honor Anne Frank, and the song played by Stephen Colbert to remember his dad and two brothers who died in a car accident when he was young. Holland, 1945 Two... One, two, three, four... The only girl Ive ever loved Was born with roses in her eyes But then they buried her alive One evening 1945 With just her sister at her side And only weeks before the guns All came and rained on everyone Now shes a little boy in Spain Playing pianos filled with flames On empty rings around the sun All sing to say my dream has come But now we must pick up every piece Of the life we used to love Just to keep ourselves At least enough to carry on And now we ride the circus wheel With your dark brother wrapped in white Says it was good to be alive But now he rides a comets flame And wont be coming back again The Earth looks better from a star Thats right above from where you are He didnt mean to make you cry With sparks that ring and bullets fly On empty rings around your heart The world just screams and falls apart But now we must pick up every piece Of the life we used to love Just to keep ourselves At least enough to carry on And heres where your mother sleeps And here is the room where your brothers were born Indentions in the sheets Where their bodies once moved but dont move anymore And its so sad to see the world agree That theyd rather see their faces fill with flies All when Id want to keep white roses in their eyes
