Lillian
Some people leave in storms
With their last words being harshest
Some people don't have to say a thing
You know you've already lost them
In fact they intentionally say nothing
They go out like a ghost
I wish I could've stayed but it's not my fault
You chose what you stood against
You lost the war to evil
You stood against smoke and sharp words
But thats your armor now
You use it to shield what you know is right
I used to be the one you told everything to
Instead you hang out with the ones who laugh too loud
Too loud for it to have come from the heart
Instead it comes from what they're holding in their hand
You know I would have held the door for you
Even if I had to watch you walk out
But you've left me wondering in the night
Searching for you
You never respond
It's hard to stay with someone when you don't read their texts
Instead you read the last one that you sent
Over and over
It would be easy to let go if we had never been so close
But we were
If this is really goodbye
Please remember me
I would still fight for you
Even if it's behind closed doors you'll never enter
