Lyrics
Persephone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Persephone you reek of orchids
Daisies, tulips, long-stemmed roses
How'd you get so sweet?
Has it always been this easy?
Or are you just being mean?
Hey, swing on by to my apartment
Know those footsteps, hear you coming
Who's the one that holds you, baby?
Even as your world is shaking
And even as I'm breaking
I got your folded piece of paper
Saw the few words that you laid there
I guess you're doing me a favor
I guess maybe I'll see you later
A guess is all I get
Persephone, you screwed me over
Wish I stole you out of nowhere
How'd you get so sweet?
How do you make it look so easy?
When you knew it'd never be
