Thorns and Roses

You've seen the headlines about him.
Knox Rivers is music's out of control, all over TMZ, and under the impression that he's God's gift to the female population bad boy.

He steals hearts with his music and then breaks them with his behavior.
And I'm his new assistant stuck traveling across the world with him on tour.

I would've never taken the job if I weren't desperate.
I'm the daughter of a rock legend who grew up around men like him.
But with each passing mile, I find myself more drawn to him.
I fight to keep our relationship professional while he pushes to prove there's more to him than you see plastered all over the tabloids.

Desire starts defeating my rationality.
I'm throwing my rules out the window.
I'll deal with the consequences when the tour bus's gas tank runs dry.
