Tangerine

Leftover coffee in the kitchen beckons me
After another night of trash sleep
I make my way down the corridor
Sweep up dust bunnies on the floor
That were once under your set of drawers
The little brown ring resides where your morning mug once sat
You stained our kitchen table, it's too late to take back
Turn all the lights on sort the laundry smell the sheets
Your scent is slowly fading from my memory

Tangerine tangerine with a cut on my tongue
Stinging stinging sweetly coming undone
Tangerine tangerine juices are wrung
Stinging stinging we're finally done

Who will it be tonight darling Jekyll or Hyde
Seemingly nothing I can't swallow or compartmentalize
Alcohol you swore you'd handle and have a good time
39 shots from your 1.75 doesn't do much besides barbarize
Just tell em the truth

I invited you in
I let you smash through my doors
And break down my boundaries that I set up and ignore
Not an excuse tell em the truth
I invited you in
I let you smash through my doors
And break down my boundaries that I set up and ignore
Not an excuse tell em the truth

Booze on your breath steamroller eyes
You coming home was like rolling the dice
I minimized you realized said it was nothing but I lied
Learned how to speak my mind as as adult
My value was based on how high I could jump
It's my own fucking fault
That I lay down and roll over for anyone with a pulse

I invited you in
(Tangerine tangerine with a cut on my tongue)
I let you smash through my doors
And break down my boundaries that I set up and ignore
(Stinging stinging sweetly coming undone)
Not an excuse tell em the truth

I invited you in
(Tangerine tangerine juices are wrung)
I let you smash through my doors
And break down my boundaries that I set up and ignore
(Stinging stinging we're finally done)
Not an excuse tell em the truth
