Wanna bite the hand that feeds And make sure it bleeds Hope that it will be alright I will not betray your trust Unless of course I must When we reach the other side Lost in transit, they found a replacement Living in the basement for a couple more years Stuck in traffic, make it home for Christmas Leaving would be tragic so I gotta stay here Wanna go to Tokyo Man, they say it glows Don’t think I could make the flight I don’t mean to fetishize I just know I’ll find Something I can’t quite define Lost in transit, they found a replacement Living in the basement for a couple more years Stuck in traffic, make it home for Christmas Leaving would be tragic so I gotta stay here If we make it one more night Before the dam breaks Before the earth quakes Would you be my guiding light I wanna hold you Under the full moon We’ll drown as one Lost in transit, they found a replacement Living in the basement for a couple more years Stuck in traffic, make it home for Christmas Leaving would be tragic so I gotta stay here

"Orchid," or, "How to Bloom in Total Darkness," is the story of a cyclical year that keeps repeating, a dream I can't stop having, and a flower always blooming.
