Lyrics to Orange Blossoms
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
I don't wanna be here
How am I supposed to be healed?
I don't wanna be here
Starin’ at the wall again
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
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
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
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
I don't wanna be here
How am I supposed to be healed?
I don't wanna be here
Starin’ at the wall again
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
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
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
