Tangerine
Tangerine
You're MVP on the losing team
Acting as if you'll be seventeen for all your life
And I heard you cry
When you were spitting into my eye
Said it been eating you up inside
(you up inside)
And I know its hard to be alone
Everyone is scared of showing people who they are
And I know everyone knows if you let them in they'll break your heart
You are worthless if you're waiting
Play it safe
Yeah play it cool
While you run away from everything
I don't ever envy you
Change your heart
You're all alone and you know you are
Say nothing matters and call it art
Say what you need
And I gave it back
My idealized version of the past
My fear that everything's meaningless
I gave it back
And I know it's hard to be alone
But its harder still to let those feelings grow
Everyone is scared of showing people who they are
And I know everyone knows if you let them in they'll break your heart
You are worthless if you're waiting
Play it safe
Yeah play it cool
While you run away from everything
I don't ever envy you
Tangerine
My little tangerine
Tangerine
My little tangerine
Tangerine
My little tangerine
My little tangerine
My little tangerine
Everyone is scared of showing people who they are
And I know everyone knows if you let them in they'll break your heart
You are worthless if you're waiting
Play it safe
Yeah play it cool
While you run away from everything
I don't ever envy
I don't ever envy you
You're MVP on the losing team
Acting as if you'll be seventeen for all your life
And I heard you cry
When you were spitting into my eye
Said it been eating you up inside
(you up inside)
And I know its hard to be alone
Everyone is scared of showing people who they are
And I know everyone knows if you let them in they'll break your heart
You are worthless if you're waiting
Play it safe
Yeah play it cool
While you run away from everything
I don't ever envy you
Change your heart
You're all alone and you know you are
Say nothing matters and call it art
Say what you need
And I gave it back
My idealized version of the past
My fear that everything's meaningless
I gave it back
And I know it's hard to be alone
But its harder still to let those feelings grow
Everyone is scared of showing people who they are
And I know everyone knows if you let them in they'll break your heart
You are worthless if you're waiting
Play it safe
Yeah play it cool
While you run away from everything
I don't ever envy you
Tangerine
My little tangerine
Tangerine
My little tangerine
Tangerine
My little tangerine
My little tangerine
My little tangerine
Everyone is scared of showing people who they are
And I know everyone knows if you let them in they'll break your heart
You are worthless if you're waiting
Play it safe
Yeah play it cool
While you run away from everything
I don't ever envy
I don't ever envy you
