Lush- For Love



Okay, okay. January's been a rather tiresome month for me. I'll try my best to get a quick recap in somewhere. Until then, let's gloom the fuck out of everything with this beautiful song by Lush. I've had this on repeat for the past few days.

Lush- For Love

Pretty little girl, she shines. Knowing she is young, she smiles; happy just to be a prize, happy just to see his smile.

Silly little girl, she tries, thinking she is good and wise doesn't recognize the lies pouring from her lips. She sighs: "This is so real. It's what I feel. I look in your eyes and lose myself."

Silly little girl denies ever understanding why her face is full of sad surprise every time she hears him cry:

"What do you feel when you're with me? I look in your eyes and see myself."

But there's no connection, just his own reflection.

Isn't this the way you wanted me? In love with you. Do anything for you.

She looked in his eyes to lose herself and when it falls apart, she cries. Doesn't think to look inside; she just covers up her eyes. Doesn't see her own disguise and though she feels this sorrow, it will fade tomorrow. She'll pretend that this was really love. She'll make their fall seem beautiful. She won't remember this at all. She won't recall the truth at all. She wants to fall again.
