    The poem is about a past relationship that has ended, with the speaker reflecting on how the roses in the window box have tilted to one side just as the relationship has deteriorated and died. The speaker recalls telling their partner that they couldn't keep up the fast pace of the relationship and had to leave the band they were in together. But the speaker's guitar couldn't hold onto their partner and their love now lies bleeding in their hands as they wonder if the changes have scarred their ex and if they will find happiness again.

    "Love Lies Bleeding"

    The roses in the window box


    Have tilted to one side
    Everything about this house
    Was born to grow and die

    Oh it doesn't seem a year ago


    To this very day
    You said I'm sorry honey
    If I don't change the pace
    I can't face another day

    And love lies bleeding in my hand


    Oh it kills me to think of you with another man
    I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan
    But my guitar couldn't hold you
    So I split the band
    Love lies bleeding in my hands

    I wonder if those changes


    Have left a scar on you
    Like all the burning hoops of fire
    That you and I passed through

    You're a bluebird on a telegraph line


    I hope you're happy now
    Well if the wind of change comes down your way girl
    You'll make it back somehow
