Verse 1 (gentle, restrained)
I trace the lilies on your windowsill,
A whispered prayer, “please never fade.”
I choke on time as it slips through my hands,
I’ll pretend I can make it stay.
Pre-Chorus (tension rising)
Every petal’s porcelain,
But I can feel the cracks begin.
If I close my eyes, if I clench my fists,
None of this is happening. This can’t be fucking happening.
Chorus (explodes, screaming edge)
Calla lilies never die in my head,
White walls bleed with the words I never said.
God don’t you dare take her, don’t you dare let go—
I refuse to believe, Don’t fucking leave me on my own.
Verse 2 (softer, trembling)
Your voice drifts down the hallway,
But it’s only echoes fading into the floor.
I claw the silence, I tear at the seams,
I can’t lose her, I won’t, clinging to memories isn’t what I want.
Pre-Chorus (building, strained)
Every prayer I scream drifts to the void,
Comes back hollow, leaves me numb and alone.
If I break, grasp tight on this denial,
Maybe I can turn the tide.
Chorus (heavier, screaming/raw)
Calla lilies never die in my head,
White walls bleed with the words I never said.
Don’t you dare take her, don’t you dare let go—
I refuse to believe, Don’t fucking leave me on my own.
Bridge (chaotic, unrestrained)
Smash the vase, cut my hands,
I can’t hold what I don’t understand.
Shatter glass, spill the truth,
If I bleed enough, can I keep you?
Final Chorus (last eruption, then cut off)
Calla lilies never die in my head,
White walls bleed with the words I never said.
Don’t you dare take her, don’t you dare let go—
I’m not ready…
I’m not—
(song ends abruptly, unresolved, like denial itself)
