The rose
Bianca Ryan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It is a river
That drowns
So tenderly
Some say love
It is a reason
That leaves
Your should to bleed
It is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love
It is a flower
And you
It's only seed
It's the heart
Afraid of breaking
That never
Learns to dance
It's the dream
Afraid of waking
That never
Takes the chance
It's the one
Who will be taking
Who can not
Seem to give
And the song
Afraid of dying
That never
Learns to live
When the night
Has been to lonely
And the road
Has been too long
And you think
That love is only
For the lucky
And the strong
Just remember
In the winter
Far beneath
The bitter snow
Lies the seed
That with the sun's love
In the spring
Becomes the rose
Bianca Ryan's song, "The Rose," is a powerful and emotional ballad that explores the nature of love and the risks we take when we open our hearts to another person. The lyrics describe different perspectives on love, with some people believing it is a river that can drown you gently, while others see it as a reason to bleed. There is also the idea that love is an endless need, a hunger that cannot be satisfied. However, for Bianca, love is a flower, and we are all just seeds waiting to bloom.
The song also touches on the fear that people have when it comes to love. We are afraid of being hurt, of breaking our hearts, and of waking up from the perfect dream. We are also afraid of giving too much, of being left with nothing, and of dying without ever truly living. The song tells us that we must take chances and be brave to truly experience love. Only then can we learn to dance and live life to the fullest.

You are the one who receives love

Love starts small and grows from there
It's the heart
The center of your emotions

An individual who stays within their comfort zone and doesn't challenge themselves
Learns to dance
Doesn't learn to enjoy life and love fully

One's vision of what love should be
Afraid of waking
Scared of finding out the reality falls short of their expectations
That never
Again, someone who sticks to their imagination and ignores the world
Takes the chance
Doesn't take a leap of faith and try to make love happen
It's the one
The person who takes and never gives
Who will be taking
They are a taker, not a giver
Who can not
They are unable
Seem to give
They don't give anything back to the ones they love
And the song
The melody and lyrics represent a mortal view of life in which death is the ultimate end
Afraid of dying
Scared of death and the unknown
That never
Stillness in life and doing nothing to feel alive
Learns to live
Don't embrace life and live it to the fullest
When the night
During moments where one feels lonely and isolated
Has been too lonely
When there is no one around to offer companionship
And the road
Life's journey
Has been too long
When life seems to drag on without end
And you think
Negative beliefs about love and happiness
That love is only
A misconception and limited vision of love
For the lucky
Only for those who are fortunate in life
And the strong
Those who have resilience and overcome hardship
Just remember
A moment of hope and encouragement
In the winter
During harsh times and difficult moments
Far beneath
Deep below the surface
The bitter snow
The frosty and cruel aspects of life
Lies the seed
A small sign of hope and revival
That with the sun's love
The warming and positive effects of love
In the spring
A time for growth and new beginnings
Becomes the rose
The emergence of beauty from the pain and grief of life
