I don't know if these words are the most important but they definately had the most impact on I think every RWBY fan. I'm sure you know I'm talking about 'Red Like Roses Part II's: "It's your blood that's red like roses!"

While I don't believe I speak for everybody, but I know myself and quiet a few other people went "Wait...what!?" To be honest, I just thought that Ruby's blood was special, but then I realized that, no, they're singing about how red (most likely Summer's) blood is. That made me stop and go, "Just what happened to Ruby?" I know some people see Ruby's cheerfulness as her getting over the death, but I for one believe that it's just a facade to keep herself together during the worst times.

However, I feel special mention should be given to this seemingly forgotten lyric from 'Gold': "Like the smell of a rose on a summer's day". The only reason why I didn't mention it as the most important is because...I'm still not entirely sure what it means. I know the use of the words, 'rose' and 'summer' is obviously referencing Summer Rose, but is Yang trying to say that she'll take over Summer's role as mother, or that Summer will continue to live on for both of them (though especially for Ruby), I'm not sure. Maybe it's something completely different. Sadly this is one of many things I have yet to figure out from the songs (along with who the heck the rapper from 'I Burn' is suppose to represent but that's a different story...).
