Lilac Lyrics by Ever Elsewhere

The Homes We’ve Known (EP)

2018

[Verse 1]
We wake up to the same news every morning
Always in mourning
The loss, we're all so god damn lost
Abandoned by the ones who swore
They'd keep us safe
They left us in the dark
I've been high for days
And I can't feel a god damn thing
Is it better or worse that way?

[Chorus]
Barely alive inside the hell we made
Barely alive inside the hell we made

[Verse 2]
We'll say what a year
We'll send our thoughts and prayers
And we'll do the same come January
If we make it there
I stayed high for days and days
(And days and days and days)
I don't remember anything
Is it better or worse that way?

[Chorus]
Barely alive inside the hell we made
Barely alive inside the hell we made
We're burying alive all of the dreams, we stayed
Alive to see, we'll never see the day

[Bridge]
Forever young
White lilacs grow where your body lays
Forever young
White lilacs grow where your body lays

[Chorus]
Barely alive inside the hell we made
Barely alive inside the hell we made
We're burying alive all of the dreams, we stayed
Alive to see, we'll never see the day

[Outro]
White lilacs grow where your body lays
(White lilacs grow where your body lays)
