Orchid
Catatonia
[Verse 1]
Even when you're teary-eyed and jaded on the floor
My love falling apart inside, I'll try to give you more
You run too fast, a million miles behind your weary eyes
But from my own perspective, I see those perfect Phoenix skies
I see you face, I cannot speak, but I have so much to say
Though, I'm not strong, it makes me weak, pick myself up anyway
The world is frightening, my love, but you already know
I'll lay you down, all safe and warm, behind a wall of dominoes

[Chorus]
And I hope you're sleeping soundly when the world defeats itself
And I know it's not a lullaby, but maybe it'll help
And I think I'm going mad again, my decaying mental health
But I'm okay
You'll be okay

[Verse 2]
Please wipe your tears, I'll pick your head up off the ground again
I know the temper has you high, I'll try to raise your chin
I was hanging by my headphones so I couldn't hear a word
Can't stop myself from losing touch, when am I gonna learn?
Sometimes I try and tell myself, I'll feel better any day
I never want to be alone and just smoke myself away
My hair is growing longer with how slow the months go by
As much as I don't like it here, I love your emerald eyes

[Chorus]
And I hope you're sleeping soundly when the world defeats itself
And I know it's not a lullaby, but maybe it'll help
And I think I'm going mad again, my decaying mental health
But I'm okay
And I hope that you are dreaming when the walls come falling down
Cause when you aren't watching, will you even hear a sound?
Am I going crazy, or have I just lost myself
You'll be okay
