no lies, just love - bright eyes

It was in March of the winter I turned seventeen
That I bought those pills I thought I would need
And I wrote a letter to my family
It said it's not your fault, no, you've been good to me
It's just lately I've been feeling like I don't belong
Like the ground's not mine to walk upon
And I've heard that music echo through the house
Where my grandmother drank by herself
And I sat watching a flower as it was withering
I was embarrassed by its honesty
So I prefer to be remembered as a smiling face
And not this fucking wreck that's taken it's place
So please forgive what I have done
No, you can't stay mad at the setting sun
Cause we all get tired, I mean eventually
There is nothing left to do but sleep
The spring came bearing sunlight, those persuasive rays
So I gave myself a few more days
My salvation it came quite suddenly
When Justin spoke very plainly
He said, Now of course it's your decision
But just so you know
If you decide to leave
Soon I will follow
I wrote this for a baby who is yet to be born
My brothers' first child, I hope that womb's not too warm
Cause it's cold out here, and it will be quite a shock
To breathe this air, to discover loss
So I'd like to make some changes
Before you arrive
So when your new eyes meet mine
They won't see no lies....
Just love
Just love
I will be pure
No, no, I know I will be pure
Like snow
Like gold
Like snow
Like gold
