Calla Lily (Alternate Version)
We lie on opposite sides
Laying back to back like the wings of a butterfly
Pressed and pinned up against the wall
Selfishly preserved, like a relic from another time.
Taxidermized hearts cannot beat
Trapped in a jar
Through this glass
I cannot breathe
When I begged for help
You turned away
I'm too much for you
You're too much for me
The scars in my hands
Have opened again
I held too tight
It's too much and now
I think its time that we should let this go
I think its time that we should let this go
Bound and tied and hung up to dry
Wrapped in twine
These petals cracked and fell beside
Beautiful when it was alive
Yet plucked away, in hopes that
Lovely corpse could be revived.
Maybe this is what we need
We are wasting ourselves
Resisting this futility.
When I begged for help
You turned away
I'm too much for you
You're too much for me
The scars in my hands
Have opened again
I held too tight
It's too much and now
I think its time that we should let this go
I think its time that we should let this go
Don't you think it's time that we should let this go
Laying back to back like the wings of a butterfly
Pressed and pinned up against the wall
Selfishly preserved, like a relic from another time.
Taxidermized hearts cannot beat
Trapped in a jar
Through this glass
I cannot breathe
When I begged for help
You turned away
I'm too much for you
You're too much for me
The scars in my hands
Have opened again
I held too tight
It's too much and now
I think its time that we should let this go
I think its time that we should let this go
Bound and tied and hung up to dry
Wrapped in twine
These petals cracked and fell beside
Beautiful when it was alive
Yet plucked away, in hopes that
Lovely corpse could be revived.
Maybe this is what we need
We are wasting ourselves
Resisting this futility.
When I begged for help
You turned away
I'm too much for you
You're too much for me
The scars in my hands
Have opened again
I held too tight
It's too much and now
I think its time that we should let this go
I think its time that we should let this go
Don't you think it's time that we should let this go
