the small calamities - orpheus on ice lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
your face across a crowded room
just wait; this will be over soon
i’d smoke to breathe in anything but your perfume

[verse 2]
flashback to when it all began
red wine in your unsteady hands
i don’t need liquor to be someone i can’t stand

[prechorus 1]
and your lipstick shines in candy apple red like a well worn sign of things we left unsaid
if i could take these blues and you out of my head i would be fine
it’s just these wrinkles in our time

[chorus 1]
all these colored lights in this greying town
i’d give up the fight but you won’t back down
meltеd wax before we could еven fly

[verse 3]
back porch; in artificial light
good friends to make it through the night
your long black hairs in every lyric that i write

[verse 4]
long looks before they disappear
held back, in sacrificial mirrors
with time i think you’d hate la as much as here
[prechorus 2]
but your lipstick shines in perfect shades of red like an ancient sign of things we left unsaid
if i could take these blues and you out of my head i would be fine
it’s just these wrinkles in our time

[chorus 2]
all these colored lights in this pitch black town
i’d give up the fight but you won’t back down
melted wax before we could even fly
hallmark greeting cards, not a single tear
no, don’t change your plans… you’re already here
if you leave this time, please don’t turn around

[instrumental break]

[coda]
but your lipstick shines in candy apple red
like a well worn sign of things we left unsaid
if i could take these blues and you out of my head, i would be

- the small calamities
