ORANGE

Leah Dou


All I see is orange
When I’m looking at you
It’s like 7pm in the end of summer
Beautiful sunset strutting your way
And I never want to be in your way

I’m feeling citrus (feeling citrus)
And I know I might be chasing a fleeting moment

Treasure, treasure every moment
That I get to spend with you
I don’t know
Why I’m like this
But I can’t seem to shake this feelin’

And my eyes are seeing lucid orange
Lucid orange Lucid orange Lucid orange

Tell your mama that I love ya I gotta, everyday
You and I we witness death of tomorrow’s twice a day
You a flower with majestical powers tangеrine
All in good time
All in a night
Then wе wake

When I was three
Being happy was easy
Share a bed with my nana she make my favorite spaghetti
In the summer her skin was always cold like the surface of the weirdly shaped marble table in the kitchen

And I was like a firecracker full of life
Thinking I’ma win first place in this thing called life
Big men say my mamas famous but I don’t know what that means
Nana says to stay away from people that might harm me

I like to put my face against her arm when we’re sleeping
And in my dreams I play hide and seek with all my pretty demons
They were small it’s like we were siblings but
As I grow my insecurities begin to feed them
I start to learn it’s a colorful world that we live in

It’s a beautiful life that we live in
Great glaciers white water
The space between us make up the cells of the golden city

I thank your mama for making you fine
I can see where u get your pretty eyes
I don’t know what it means to be alive but
I’ll be alright and you’ll be alright
I see a blood orange hang in the sky
Where u walk in the light

Tell your mama that I love ya I gotta, everyday
You and I we witness death of tomorrow’s twice a day
You a flower with majestical powers tangerine
And my eyes all I see lucid orange
