Oh, Lily Lu, sweet innocent Lily Lu,
Oh, wait, not so sweet anymore, nor so innocent either
Oh, Lily Lu, bitter, broken Lily Lu.
You used to be fire and now, you're not even ice.
You're nothing, you're hollow.
You used to be a daddy's girl, but now, where is he?
You pushed away too hard Lily Lu, even for him.
And for what? For what Lily Lu?
Because deep down, you were sad and scared.
And now, you're all alone. You succeeded, no one will hurt you anymore.
Oh, but wait, someone is calling for you
It's Jamie dearest, looks like you're not so alone after all.
He's telling you silly things like, "I understand" and "I've felt the same"
And maybe he can be your anchor in this see of wonder
Maybe you'll learn to swim.
Cause baby, when he kisses you, you breath for the first time in a long time.
But oh, Lily Lu, he is broken too,
And if you come any closer, you'll cut yourself on the shattered pieces
You can't form a perfectly new glass with two broken ones.
But nothing was ever perfect about you two,
And maybe, just maybe, you can mend each other
And Lily Lu, oh Lily Lu, you'll never get your fire back, but maybe air is just fine.
