Perpetually Blue Lyrics by Shortly

Dancer

2021

Shadow you are in your mom’s living room
Not much for me but there’s none left for you
You are so young yet your body so worn
No longer cat scratches I know what you’ve done
Breathtaking image, green pasture dreams
None left for you and not much left for me
Knees on the dash, keep from sinking
Please stay here, be my strength because I am thinning
And what if the sky was perpetually blue
There was no nighttime to feed sadness to
How many faces would still scream at the sun
No longer cat scratches I know what you’ve done
Something divine is so decimated
There’s a shoebox under my bed that I hold sacred
It’s a heady headache, it’s an old paper cut
An inconvenient “You were never enough”
It’s an inconvenience, it was never enough
It’s an inconvenience, it was never enough
“You’re an inconvenience, you were never enough”
