Orange Blossoms Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Somebody buy me roses
Somebody make sure I get out of bed today
Somebody be my baby
Somebody see that I don't get in my own way
Somebody hold my head up
Somebody hope that I don’t give up, not this time
Somebody check my email
Somebody just give me the damn highlights

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be here
How am I supposed to be healed?
I don't wanna be here
Starin’ at the wall again

[Verse 2]
Somebody hold me hostage
Somebody make me think I might be worth something
Somebody take a photo
Somehow I know I won't be rememberin'
Somebody be my angel
Somebody change the angle I see all the time
Somebody fast forward
Somebody just give me the damn highlights

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be here
How am I supposed to be healed?
Everybody goes home
And the way there is not clear
I don't wanna be here
I don't wanna be here
How am I supposed to be healed?
Everybody grows up
And leaves me in the tower
Drinkin' from the bottle
Knowin' what it does to me
Seein’ every color
Slidin’ into shadow

[Outro]
While I can, I will carry
My own bags
And I will call my father
When I know that he's alone
And I will plant a plot
Of yellow flowers
They’ll be a sign
To whichever one of us survives
And when I see the ghost
Of orange blossoms in the snow
I'll know it was you
And I'm comin' soon

What did Half Waif say about "Orange Blossoms"?

I think of this song as an epic triptych. I imagine it being sung by a princess in a tower. Half the kingdom is in shadow, half in rainbow. She’s depressed, drinking too much. She can only see the shadow. But by the end section, the light shifts and the scene changes. Suddenly she has this clarity t...
