Carrots in My Veins
Lyrics
Verse 1
I woke up hungry again
Hands in the drawer, don't judge me
Orange stains on my shirt
Like a crime I can't clean off
La cocina me llama
I say "one more" and I lie
Crunch by crunch, I disappear
Mientras todos se van
Pre-Chorus
Mama said, "No lo hagas"
But I kept my mouth shut
I loved the sweet hard pull
I loved it too much
I bit down on my own life
And didn't even flinch
The room got cold around me
When the taste wouldn't quit
Chorus
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
I lost it all for orange teeth
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
You called my name, I didn't turn
Carrots in my veins
Verse 2
My brother left the porch light on
Then he left for good
My girl took the last clean dish
And never came back home
Mi perro ya no duerme
He won't sit by my feet
Even the mirror in the hall
Looks away from me
Pre-Chorus
I told myself mañana
I swore I'd make it right
But my hands kept digging deeper
All through the night
Every joke turned bitter
Every kiss turned thin
I fed the hollow in my chest
And fed the hole within
Chorus
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
I lost it all for orange teeth
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
You called my name, I didn't turn
Carrots in my veins
Bridge
Now there's dust where the photo stood
And silence at the door
I traded every warm thing
For a craving wanting more
Ya no soy el mismo
I can hear it in my bones
I chased that sweet brown earth
And wound up all alone
Break
(oh-oh) No me dejes así
(oh-oh) I'm still here, I'm still here
Final Chorus
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
I lost it all for orange teeth
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
If love was still inside me
I buried it beneath
Carrots in my veins
Carrots in my veins
You called my name, I didn't turn
Carrots in my veins
