Survival
*by Lichen Throat
shadow entry*

Hello Miss Ada Clare,
We’ve never met before.
You’re sweet as an eclair
And lovely to the core.
Hey, will you marry me?
Though we are orphans, both,
I’ll pledge my love to thee
And take the marriage oath.
Let our lives be intertwined;
Troubled days are far behind.
We’ve survived them all alone;
Let not our love be postponed.

Now we might both be heirs
To such a huge estate
That all our worldly cares
Will just evaporate.
We can’t trust anyone
To treat us fairly now.
I say what’s done is done;
Past trust, I disavow.
Hire lawyers, head to court.
I’ll fight hard! No one will thwart
Our claim as long as I’m alive;
It’s what we need to survive.

The case is long prolonged,
The money’s been consumed.
It’s you whom I have wronged,
And now I know I’m doomed.
I feel myself grow weak
And my life ebb away.
Just kiss my fevered cheek,
And love me one last day.
Can’t get back the days I spent
Wallowing in discontent.
Making friends become my rivals
Put an end to my survival.

Meditative groove. Confession: I haven't been following the Ouija-verse OR the Bleak-House-a-verse narratives very closely, but the lyrics really grabbed my attention on this one. This song is chill.
