MaeThePirate - Lily and Jenny Lyrics
Official




Jenny was a prom queen chewing on ice cubes
Crying at night because she didn't like herself
But she played her part so well
Lily worked a job at minimum wage
Customers spit and laughed in her face
She hoped one day
She'd find her place
Jenny had a crush she was in denial
Got butterflies when Lily smiled
Making herself suicidal
She wanted to say
Will you run away with me?
Let's get the hell out Tennessee
I promise you'll be safe with me
I swear
Let's drive to the coast
Cause the system is broken
I love who I love it's not fair
Jenny was scared her brother would hate her
Wrote him a note on parchment paper
Hope he didn't mind
That she'd be
Gone for a little while
Lily was scared to leave her family
Dinner table set with one spot empty
But she wanted so bad to be free
Words were playing in her hear
Everything that Jenny said
She couldn't get it off her mind
The things that Jenny said last night
Will you run away with me?
Let's get the hell out Tennessee
I promise you'll be safe with me
I swear
Let's drive to the coast
Cause the system is broken
I love who I love it's not fair
La da, da da da da da da, da da da da
La da, da da da da da da, da da
Met up in a parking lot
Both afraid to shoot their shot
Held eachother's hand
And they hopped right into Jenny's van
Will you run away with me?
Let's get the hell out Tennessee
I promise you'll be safe with me
I swear
Let's drive to the coast
Cause the system is broken
I love who I love it's not fair
La da, da da da da da, da da da
Da da, da da da da da da
They send postcards annually
Back to their family
Signed with love
Lily and Jenny
