Lillian Lies

Lillian lies to avoid awkward questions

Looks to the sky for intervention

But she can't avoid judgmental

Compassion

In the void

She puts on her face, makes it a brave one

Gets herself a seat on an interstate greyhound

When everything's gone at least you've got nothing

That holds on

She curls herself up, rests her head on the window

Sees her face in the trees suspended in limbo

When everything's gone at least you've got nothing

That holds on

You're a stranger in a country town

The kids all stare, the cars slow down

You didn't think you'd be so dumb

To just grab a hold of whatever came along

Houses slip by, the cloud are so low

The sky doesn't cover, it swallows
