Lilly
Mirror facing mirror, staring at the infinite repeats of myself
Final words of winter linger on the lawn
Pretending that we're married
We always said we would be when we finally grew up
Memories I buried, kids I lived among
The world runs on money
Its matrons have no love for simple and golden and good
It kills me that only in bitter nostalgia can we still go live in the woods
The last time I saw Lilly
we were wide-eyed, we were parallel
The last time I saw Lilly
Was the last time I felt like myself
Face-down on the playground, staring at the face of someone's miracle son
Hero, villain, victim, you're never only one
You're never only one
I needed a reminder, of only you there to make me feel like someone
I floated into nothing, forgot the way it was, forgot the way it was
How could I leave without leaving behind something crucial and fragile and sweet
Nothing inside me was ready to lose all my memories of being free
The last time I saw Lilly
we were wide-eyed, we were parallel
The last time I saw Lilly
Was the last time I
I know there's a reason
It's hard to believe it
I guess that's my weakness
My vision is blurred
But if I go through photos
And see us together
I have to remember, that's still who I am
Final words of winter linger on the lawn
Pretending that we're married
We always said we would be when we finally grew up
Memories I buried, kids I lived among
The world runs on money
Its matrons have no love for simple and golden and good
It kills me that only in bitter nostalgia can we still go live in the woods
The last time I saw Lilly
we were wide-eyed, we were parallel
The last time I saw Lilly
Was the last time I felt like myself
Face-down on the playground, staring at the face of someone's miracle son
Hero, villain, victim, you're never only one
You're never only one
I needed a reminder, of only you there to make me feel like someone
I floated into nothing, forgot the way it was, forgot the way it was
How could I leave without leaving behind something crucial and fragile and sweet
Nothing inside me was ready to lose all my memories of being free
The last time I saw Lilly
we were wide-eyed, we were parallel
The last time I saw Lilly
Was the last time I
I know there's a reason
It's hard to believe it
I guess that's my weakness
My vision is blurred
But if I go through photos
And see us together
I have to remember, that's still who I am
