From This Oil Can

see a long time ago I didn't care so much
I kinda hated myself so much
I watched my head just fly away
out to a place where the sun doesn't shine so much
but I loved my bed so much
'cause while I'd sleep I'd seem okay
I'd almost seem okay

and I lost my life on the first try
but you found it miles down the line
a swollen face with all these names
and then you kissed the taste back into my tongue
sucked the smoke out of my lungs
and then we slept for days and days

now from this oil can
somehow there grows an orchid
and all your leaves were burning ashes
they will die in the sunlight
die in the sunlight

well a long time ago I didn't care too much
but I loved to drink so much
I let my heart just float away
out to a place where the songs they don't mean so much
I could not feel your touch
could not feel anything but pain

but now from this oil can
somehow there grows an orchid
and all your leaves were burning ashes
they will die in the sunlight
die in the sunlight
they'll die in the sunlight
we'll die in the sunlight
