Orchids

[00:31.59] You hold me inside your iris like a terminal stain on life
[00:40.28] you condescend to my primal brain and twist me around like a knife
[00:49.40] Can't begin to explain
[00:53.13] The feelings I have restrained
[00:57.41] Don't ask me how I am
[01:00.11] Because you're too busy planning your epitaph
[01:04.39] Let me tell you
[01:05.30] Don't - try to be the one - person
[01:09.26] Who has stayed - just to say
[01:11.65] They never left me!
[01:14.86] Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
[01:20.46] God, I never learn
[01:24.67]
[01:27.98] You keep me hidden behind a curtain,
[01:32.22] an audible human display
[01:36.62] You feed me orchids to give me courage
[01:40.93] and keep me in line with disdain
[01:45.78] Can't begin to explain
[01:49.53] The feelings I have restrained
[01:53.80] Don't ask me how I am
[01:56.52] Because you're too busy planning your epitaph
[02:00.63] Let me tell you
[02:01.78] Don't - try to be the ONE - person
[02:05.57] Who has stayed - just to say
[02:07.95] They never left me!
[02:11.29] Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
[02:16.83] God, I never learn
[02:22.83]
[02:36.57] I have nothing left for you
[02:40.76] you left me with nothing
[02:45.15] I have nothing left for you
[02:51.33] you left me witn nothing!
[02:53.35] I live at arm's length and die a little,
[02:58.63]
[03:16.24] between your constants by day
[03:20.60] I want my soul back before it's over,
[03:24.96] I can't even wish you away
[03:29.77] Can't begin to explain
[03:33.51] The feelings I have restrained
[03:37.88] Don't ask me how I am
[03:40.55] Because you're too busy planning your epitaph
[03:44.71] Let me tell you
[03:45.63] Don't - try to be the one - person
[03:49.51] Who has stayed - just to say
[03:51.97] They never left me!
[03:55.29] Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
[04:00.89] God, I never learn
[04:05.06]
[04:10.89] I never learn!
[04:11.92] I never learn!
