Tangerine
Emerald eyes
Tangerine sky
There's a sunset in your kiss
Nothing quite like this
When it sets on my lips, it's like we're the only creatures that exist

Told a few lies
but I'm not a bad guy
I closed a lot of doors
but kept the windows open wide

Let the hurricane's boom soak the carpets and rooms
sipped a vampire's blood and stole the witch's broom
I may be a dead man walkin', but you're a cannibal
and I just want to be the corpse that you consume

These walls call me crazy
and tell me that my mind has gone blank
I used to dream so wild
but now I'm wide awake

Tangerine mornings
used to taste so sweet
As seconds go by and the feeling begins to fleet
a thousand violins play dramatic and heavy
A backdrop for an explosion
you're a disease, please infect me

There's a ghost in my head
There's a monster under my bed Tangerine daydreams
wish they were real instead
Fighting the urge to create the feeling on my own
At least I feel something when I feel so alone
