Verse 1:
I spend January replanting lilies
And I spend February tearing them out of the ground
I spend March setting fire to my blood
And I spend April sucking ice cubes to calm it down

Verse 2:
In May
I learn that I'm a gentle lover boiling over and
June
I spend my time scrubbing myself of wanting closure
July was the time I learned to hold my breath
And in August my friends taught me
It's okay to breathe along with them

Interlude:
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Verse 3:
September was a blur, part of me is in October
I spend November wondеring what heaven looks like
And although, it was a Nеw Year's resolution to live in the moment
And know that next December
I'll be praying for it to be

Interlude:
July
July
July

Outro:
Praying for July
