Their next CD was delayed when Mike Diva got the opportunity to shoot and direct the music video for Mindless Self Indulgence's "Mark David Chapman". As of September 9th, Mike Diva has finished the video and has started working on material for the duo's first full length LP, "For Great Justice".
A split EP with RoMaK and the Space Pirates was announced on the groups myspace in March. It released sometime in 2010, including a new song and cover by both bands.
Vyncent Flaw's last activity was BFD's music video release and live shows in 2011-2012.
Kiss From A Rose
Vyncent Flaw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
Ooh,
The more I get of you,
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain,
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey,
I've been kissed by a rose on the grave,
I've been kissed by a rose
I've been kissed by a rose on the grave,
...And if I should fall along the way
I've been kissed by a rose
...been kissed by a rose on the grave.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
The song "Kiss From A Rose" by Vyncent Flaw is a romantic ballad that explores the depths of a love that is both powerful and complex. The opening lyrics describe a lonely "greying tower alone on the sea," a symbol of the singer's isolation and despair. But then the singer finds hope in the form of his partner, who becomes a "light on the dark side" of him. Despite love being compared to a drug that can be addictive, the lyrics paint a hopeful picture of a love that can provide solace in the darkness.
The chorus of the song compares the singer's partner to a "kiss from a rose on the grey" and describes how being with them feels "stranger," yet more fulfilling, with each passing day. The metaphor of a blooming rose on top of the grey tower conjures an image of hope and beauty emerging from darkness and despair. The singer acknowledges that there is only so much he can say to express the depth of his emotions and the hold his partner has on him. They are a "growing addiction that [he] can't deny," a source of both pleasure and pain.
Overall, "Kiss From A Rose" is a tribute to the power of love to overcome darkness and transform our lives.
