lyrics

it’s only blue
through the front porch, getaway
over mountain, past
the tire swinging low

past the fake lake,
green and lavender,
almost an hour,
only feels a little a more

oh my lord
feel the warmth
valley sun is always closer
than you think

oh my lord
these dirty roads
take me over to things
i never knew i need

green around the Sespe
slick on grey rocks
slipping sides, hitting
water, burning hands

there she goes
and i seem to think of her
like another one to
try and understand

oh my lord and
all the earth i
thank you for everything
you’ve buried underneath but

oh my lord
when it grows
I don’t understand
whats coming up from me

fruit fallin meat and pit
slow rot under all of it

walkin up the roads
green fruit peels hard away,
tasting bitter
i can’t wait until it’s sweet

oh, i don’t know
is it lust or nausea
all this hunger makes me
swell up like its heat

oh my lord and
all the earth i
thank you for everything
you’ve buried underneath but

oh my lord
when it grows
I don’t understand
whats coming up from me

fruit fallin meat and pit
slow rot under all of it

sweet tangerine
sweet tangerine

looking at the stars
going up so clearly
burning like they really
know which way to spin

looking over orchard
oh sweet tangerine!
it’s a slow grow
waiting for the spring
