Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 (soft but tense) I water your lilies with trembling hands, Beg them, plead, “please, stay, I need my best friend.” I’d trade my breath, my bones, my time, If it could make you survive. Pre-Chorus (rising) I whisper bargains to the ceiling, To the stars, to anything that hears. If I give everything, take nothing, Can I steal back these years? Chorus (full surge, pleading, desperate) Calla lilies bend beneath my plea, White petals tremble, don’t leave me. If I could barter all my days, I’d trade them just please you stay. Interlude / Plea (fade music, soft almost spoken/singing) I swear I’ll do it all… Anything you want… Just don’t go… Stay… Please… (music swells back into full pleading chorus) Verse 2 (more frantic, layers of desperation) I trace every line on your hands, Count every heartbeat, every scar. I bargain with fate, I bargain with God, “Don’t take her, don’t take her far.” Pre-Chorus (rising again) Every second I bargain with the night, Every whisper is a chain I try to bind. If love could trade, if hope could fight, I’d drag the world to hold you tight. Chorus (repeat, surging, more frantic) Calla lilies bend beneath my plea, White petals tremble, don’t leave me. If I could barter all my days, I’d trade them just please you stay. Bridge (chaotic layers, building to desperation) Break the clocks, stall the sun, I’ll trade my soul to make it undone. Petals fall, but I hold tight, Begging, screaming, all through the night. Final Chorus (emotional crescendo, pleading and raw) Calla lilies bend beneath my plea, White petals tremble, don’t leave me. If I could barter all my days, I’d trade them just please…
