EZ from October by Lily Porter Wright

Ellen, I am out tonight
37 Fahrenheit
There’s open windows in my mind
I know I should apologize for

Ellen, do you remember when
It snowed on Halloween?
You cried cause you got nothing
And I said we don’t need anything

We were kids some other time
The playground or the summertime
October was another life cause
We were never kids that night and

I keep remembering
More than was really happening
I know you don’t need anything from me,
you don’t need anything

Why would I be lying to you?
I am trying, too
I am trying
Why would I be lying to you?
I swear it’s true
And I’m leaving soon

Ellen, do you remember when
I broke your arm in a pillow fight
I think of it when I sleep at night
Same bed where I made you cry

Ellen, do you remember when
It flashed before your eyes
we would end up here someday and
I might tell the truth this time

I wish I didn’t lie to you
But it’s easy to
It’s so easy
I wish I didn’t lie to you
But it’s easy to
It’s so easy
I wish I didn’t lie to you
But it’s easy to
It’s so easy
I wish I didn’t lie to you
I swear it’s true
And I’m leaving
