Lyrics
Persephone
Introduction of the character "Persephone."
It's been a while since you came around
Expressing the absence of Persephone for a considerable time.
And I miss your pretty face
Expressing a longing for Persephone's presence and beauty.
And all the days we used to hang around
Reflecting on past moments spent together.
those pomegranate seeds must have been something
Suggesting that Persephone's decision may have been influenced by significant events symbolized by pomegranate seeds.
To trade this simple life
Speculating on the perceived complexity of the life Persephone chose over a simpler one.
All for nothing
Expressing a sense of sacrifice for something seemingly futile.
Persephone
Reiteration of the character "Persephone."
It's been a while since you came up for air
Noting Persephone's infrequent appearances and suggesting a need for a break.
Seems like you need a break
Sympathizing with the idea that Persephone may not be happy in her current situation.
I can't imagine that you're happy there
Expressing difficulty in imagining Persephone's contentment.
And I keep writing letters
Revealing the act of writing letters to Persephone, but uncertainty about where to send them.
But don't know just where to send
Conveying the inability to reach out effectively to Persephone.
So if you ever need a friend
Offering friendship and waiting for Persephone.
I'm waiting here
Reiterating the readiness to be there for Persephone.
I think the hardest part
Reflecting on the most challenging aspect of the situation.
Is that you never listen
Pointing out Persephone's apparent lack of receptiveness.
I think the hardest part is that
Reiterating the difficulty, emphasizing Persephone's role in decision-making.
It's your decision
Acknowledging that the decision ultimately belongs to Persephone.
but if you find the time
Suggesting a desire for communication if Persephone finds time.
To read or write
Encouraging Persephone to engage in written communication.
A letter back to me
Expressing openness to receiving a letter from Persephone.
Oh Persephone
Addressing Persephone again.

Persephone
-I'm sorry but this just isn't fair
-I miss the nights we'd sit out by the lake
-The moonlight in your hair
-And I've been being strong
-But now I'm grasping out for air
-I just don't want to be back home
-if you're not there
-I think the hardest part
-Is that you never listen
-I think the hardest part is that
-It's your decision
-but if you find the time
-To read or write
-A letter back to me
-Oh Persephone
-but if you find the time
-To read or write
-A letter back to me
-Oh Persephone
-Persephone
-Persephone
