Illusies

Saying everything you've ever seen was just a mirror
spend your whole life sweating in an endless fever
and laying in a bathtub full of freezing water
wishing you were a ghost

But once you knew a girl and you named her lover
danced with her in kitchens through the greenest summer
autumn came, she disappeared, you can't remember
where she said she was going to

But you know that she's gone
'cause she left you a song
that you don't want to sing
A perfect sonnet -Conor Oberst
