about

I don't usually explain my songs but I feel so terrible about this and I want to give Lilly's memory a little more than I did already.
Lilly wanted to be friends but I thought hanging out with her would make my girlfriend jealous so I didn't invite her over to be friends and the day after I asked my girlfriend about it and she said it'd have been no problem I found out Lilly overdosed and now I'll never be able to try to help her not go back to heroin and this is the first new year's she missed out on.
Please don't start using heroin.
Steve Roggenbuck introduced us so it was fitting that I found out about her death from him, the night he read at Cloud Club, but I missed some of his set from crying uncontrollably for hours and recording this beforehand.

lyrics

g-d-e-g (up octave)


what else could iiii have done?

Could I have been the one?

To convince you that life could be fun


for you was mostly shootin' up

it numbs the other stuff

and so because


of that tonight you will miss steve's reading

we were just talking

you were lookin forward to coming


d-c

so even though

I know

I can't save lost souls

even though,

I know,

I can't let this guilt go


I wish we were gonna hang out

at the club cloud

I admit I knew about


your despair

sorry I was not there

though I did care

i'm also aware


that I couldn't save

your soul

but even though

I know

I can't let this guilt go


I don't believe in regretting things really

i'll just say i'm sorry

rest in peace lilly
