Orchids

[Intro]
Yeah!

[Verse 1]
You hold me inside your iris like a
A terminal stain on life
You condescend to my primal brain and
Twist me around like a knife

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't begin to explain
The feelings I have restrained
Don't ask me how I am
Because you're too busy planning your epitaph
Let me tell you

[Chorus]
Don't try to be the one person
Who has stayed just to say
They never left me
Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
God, I never learn...

[Verse 2]
You keep me hidden behind a curtain
An audible human display
You feed me orchids to give me courage
And keep me in line with disdain

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't begin to explain
The feelings I have restrained
Don't ask me how I am
Because you're too busy planning your epitaph
Let me tell you

[Chorus]
Don't try to be the one person
Who has stayed just to say
They never left me
Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
God, I never learn...

[Bridge]
I have nothing left for you...
You left me with nothing
And I have nothing left for you...
You left me with nothing

[Verse 3]
I live at arm's length and die a little
Between your constants by day
I want my soul back before it's over
I can't even wish you away

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't begin to explain
The feelings I have restrained
Don't ask me how I am
Because you're too busy planning your epitaph
Let me tell you

[Chorus]
Don't try to be the one person
Who has stayed just to say
They never left me
Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
God, I never learn...

[Outro]
I never learn!
