You Won't be Like the Orchids

from Consumed by a Sickness by Brightly Painted Corpses

/

lyrics

I can't let this consume me
But it's hard to see you so emaciated
Memories flood my mind
and I find myself framing countless pictures
On a day like this where the butterflies flutter by the bush in front of the apartment
You would water the orchids
Now wilted over in ceramic pots
You won't be like the orchids, I promise
We can make it through this
But in the back of my mind I wonder if it's just an empty promise
It can't be, or at least I can try to convince myself the best I can
I can't be stagnant in negativity any longer
It hasn't gotten me anywhere
At a time like this I've only learned to be more positive
Or at least pretend to be
I don't want to believe it's over.
