Blue Like Fire - Burning Orchids

Smoke fills my lungs
I think all of us burn too hot to touch
Singed and charred
Our speckled hearts
The orchids burning, burning
Coming in but I
Didn't know that I
Was walking in on a count down waiting to blow
Voices shake
No lies
Not what you want then don't ask twice
These conversations my conundrum
To burn or to grow
I know we couldn't help it
But that's not enough sometimes
Now I could let it make me selfish
Unleash the fire let it eat you alive
Take my hand
I'm offering it again
I hope you can trust me
I don't know if I can
Scars do heal
But they're healing slow
Just know that I miss you when I say leave me alone
Just leave me alone now
I'm trying to remember
I'm trying to remember
I said leave me alone
Just leave me alone now
I'm trying to remember
I'm trying to remember
I'm not better alone
Smoke fills my lungs
This I can't out run
Though I'd rather be done
It's obvious though something I always miss
They're telling me over and over
We get knocked down and we get back up
Can not silence us
Can not conquer love
I'm still holding onto you when I'm burning up, up, up
Take my hand
I'm offering it again
I hope you can trust me
I don't know if I can
Scars do heal
But they're healing slow
Just know that I miss you when I say leave me alone
Just leave me alone now
I'm trying to remember
I'm trying to remember
I said leave me alone
Just leave me alone now
I'm trying to remember
I'm trying to remember
I'm not better alone
Take my hand
I'm offering it again
I hope you can trust me
I don't know if I can
Scars do heal
But they're healing slow
Just know that I miss you when I say leave me alone
Just leave me alone now
I'm trying to remember
I'm trying to remember
I said leave me alone
Just leave me alone now
I'm trying to remember
I'm trying to remember
I'm not better alone
Smoke fills my lungs
I think all of us burn too hot to touch
Singed and charred
It's worth the scars
The orchids burning, burning
