"Orchid" lyrics

"Orchid"

Six o' clock, the room's still spinning
Slow the blood, we're almost finished
Razor blade the fine-tuned image
Mind's ablaze without you in it

(What are you scared to find?)
Every face looks off
(What are you scared to find?)
Been away too long

The smiles will fade
The flowers will fade
I'm miles away

We're flowers in bloom
Too soon
We're flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom

Six o' clock, the room's still spinning
The house is dead, there's no one in it
A razor blade, the cracked-tooth image
And mine's ablaze without you in it

(What are you scared to find?)
Going nowhere slow
(What are you scared to find?)
And another year alone
Don't say you're slowing down
Don't say it's so

We're flowers in bloom
Too soon
We're flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom

Where were the violets? Where were the blues?
Where was the sunlight to shine on through?
There in the silence
I was the fuse
I was the fuse
I was the fuse

Where were the violets? Where were the blues?
Where was the sunlight to shine on through?
There in the silence
I was the fuse
I was the fuse
I was the fuse

Flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom
Flowers in bloom

Now it's six o' clock, the room's still spinning
Without a thought, I need you in it
A razor blade, my uptight image
My mind's ablaze without you in it

Without you in it
Without you
