"The Rose in Black" is about the depressingness of now. See, this song came to me in a dream, the night after a day of feeling particularly bummed out. It's, essentially, a song about how depressing it is to live in this world, and how it kills your soul.
I can tell that some of the lyrics are heavily influenced by Mike Shinoda. I've been listening to his album, Post Traumatic a lot.

Here're the lyrics:
I can't be here anymore / there's no place for me
This is not my world / it's not where I want to be
I used to dream the rose in black; it's coming back, it's coming back
Eternal burning eyes / look so far away
In the burnt sunrise / It is where I guess I'll stay
In the dawning of the day / that never ends
The clouds are gray / and you can't go home again
I used to dream the rose in black; it's coming back, it's coming back
John Trudell, he said it well, when he said this world is fucked
It eats your soul and it spits it out / and it's trampled in the muck
I said it long time ago / singing in my purple cave
What do you do when you have no clue / and there's no soul left to save
I can't be here anymore / there's no place for me
This is not my world / it's not where I want to be
I used to dream the rose in black; it's coming back, it's coming back
