I Never Promised You a Rose Garden

Pick a petal Watch it fall One by one All for all Play the game An empty stem The answer known He still loves them A broken flower Still bears thorns A rose is lost A garden born Crimson lawns Remind one thing From dark November The light of spring

well the flower symbolizes the ideals of the movement, that those with the ability to speak out against opression had a responsiblity to. the petals symbolize the martyrs. they all gave their lives for all of those without a voice. though the men of faith were gone, God still loved the oppressed and the November murders were the beginning of the end of the war.
