There is an orchid someone gave me    Flat and pressed under the glass    It once was pink and vivid    But today its day has passed       Its brown leaf spread weak and thin    That orchid feels just like my bones and skin    Its heartbeat centre of its soul    Is now just furry shelter to protect it from the cold      Laid out flat for visual effect    Today I feel a lot like that    I put it in its frame eternal joy    And now its just another burned out toy       You should have seen the way    It slowly just decayed    I feel a lot like that orchid today
