LYRICS // ODE TO MRS. PONTELLIEREveryday has such a sweet, sweet purposeBut it’s getting old. And I don’t know, I don’t know why To stare at your life and say only goodbye Edna Pontellier had a very good life Tuesday afternoons she played the very good wife Brilliantly attired, she lived a lie Until he arrived Feeling so strange, behaving unimportant This can’t be maintained It’s time to let go Don’t let things remain To stare at your life and say only goodbye Everyday contemplation spirals you with inward thoughts and fancy whims Everyday isolation elevates your spirit from all the little things But everyday became the last, when he said “Goodbye…” “Goodbye because I love you…” Edna Pontellier took a swim at Grand Isle Breaking the status quo, she took her own life Awakened to her desires, she couldn’t go on Living a life that was cast before she was born Everyday has such a sweet, sweet purpose |
