[Verse 1]
E E/D# C#m G#m B E
Orange is the color of my love
F# B E E/D#
Fragile orange wind in the garden
C#m G#m B E
Fragile means that I can hear her flesh
F# B E E/D#
Crying little rivers in her forearm
C#m G#m B E
Fragile is that I mourn her death
F# G#m E
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom
[Chorus]
C#m D#m C#m
Lies, lies, lies
F# G#m E
Lies in her eyes
C#m D#m C#m
Lies, lies, lies
D#m E G#m B
Lies in her eyes
[Verse 2]
E E/D# C#m G#m B E
She tells me to close and count to ten
F# B E E/D#
As she wanders freely through the forest
C#m G#m B E
Can I close and open once again?
F# G#m E
The question that I seek for reassurance
[Chorus]
C#m D#m C#m
Lies, lies, lies
F# G#m E
Lies in her eyes
C#m D#m C#m
Lies, lies, lies
D#m E G#m B
Lies in her eyes

Hound dogs crowing at the stars above
F# B E E/D#
Pigeons fall like snowflakes at the border
C#m G#m B E
She kneels down and holds the frozen dove
F# G#m E
Moon drips like water from her shoulder
[Chorus]
C#m D#m C#m
Flies, flies, flies
F# G#m E
Flies from her eyes
C#m D#m C#m
Flies, flies, flies

Flies from her eyes
