JANE LIVELY (poem/lyrics)

This acrostic poem/song was created in the shower, where I write all the songs and usually forget them.


J is for jelly ’cause that’s what you are of me
A is for ahaha, haha ha hahaha
N is for “no”, like it’s my middle name
E, even though it’s why my family thinks I’m insane

L is for life, a miracle I’m alive, ’cause
I, I’m “insane” but I didn’t stop my
V, ventricle that keeps helping me breathe
E, even with what my asthma does to me, like
L, oh L, oh L, oh L
Y, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

J is just if it didn’t rhyme with must
A, ah hahaha, haha haha-ah
N still means “no”, so let go
E, even if you want to stay

Let me go
I want to go so
Very far away
E, Even if you want me to stay
Look at how much damage has been done
Yeah, this is me “moving on”

Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha haha

Just avoid (ah haha haha haha)
All the noise (ah haha haha haha)
Nothing is holding me back from (ah haha haha haha)
Everything (ah haha haha haha)

Looks like fun, moving on (ah haha haha haha)
I don’t care to see your face (ah haha haha haha)
Very well, have a good day (ah haha haha haha)
Even though this means we are through
Looks like fun, moving on
Yeah, that’s what I’m “doing to you”

Jane is me
And so lovely
No, nothing’s wrong with her
E, even though she does her own thing

Life looks good on the other side
I know the grass is greener and I
Vent in song
Even though I’ll forget if I don’t write them down
Looks like things are going my way
Yeah, this is my life, hey-ay-ayyy
