lyrics
her history is telling
can't refrain it from talking
let it spoil in the spotlight
let us take it from view
please never bring me back
when my body dies
don't let me be lonely
and when every single thing I do
stops making sense
take this photograph
when the angles right
say I love you
let me repeat this day
let me do it my way
and don't say that I've suffered this life no
Li Li Li
ooh she got this scar
from a leap of faith
she decided to
learn from this mistake
making ties to observe
the effects of breaking them down
ooh she's got a gaze
crafted to engage
those who knew it well
left quietly
she accepted your
adoration though
she would justify boundaries in her heart
loving you down
loving you down
my heartache in telling
can't refrain it from wanting
let it hide from the spotlight
let us push it from truth
please never take me to
where my body lies
don't let me be lonely
before every single thing I do
stops making sense
take this photograph
when the angles right
say I knew you
let me repeat this day
let me do it my way
and don't say that I've suffered this life no
Li Li Li
ooh she's got a gaze
crafted to engage
those who knew it well
left quietly
she accepted your
adoration though
she would justify boundaries in her heart
loving you down
loving you down
can't refrain it from talking
let it spoil in the spotlight
let us take it from view
please never bring me back
when my body dies
don't let me be lonely
and when every single thing I do
stops making sense
take this photograph
when the angles right
say I love you
let me repeat this day
let me do it my way
and don't say that I've suffered this life no
Li Li Li
ooh she got this scar
from a leap of faith
she decided to
learn from this mistake
making ties to observe
the effects of breaking them down
ooh she's got a gaze
crafted to engage
those who knew it well
left quietly
she accepted your
adoration though
she would justify boundaries in her heart
loving you down
loving you down
my heartache in telling
can't refrain it from wanting
let it hide from the spotlight
let us push it from truth
please never take me to
where my body lies
don't let me be lonely
before every single thing I do
stops making sense
take this photograph
when the angles right
say I knew you
let me repeat this day
let me do it my way
and don't say that I've suffered this life no
Li Li Li
ooh she's got a gaze
crafted to engage
those who knew it well
left quietly
she accepted your
adoration though
she would justify boundaries in her heart
loving you down
loving you down

Bells Atlas’ latest offering the mystic digs further into their soulful buoyancy to explore both sound and storytelling. The record can be seen as sci-fi fantasy of two first-generation Nigerian American women coming to terms with a mental health diagnosis, and at the same time, a very universal exploration of how we make sense of reality. ... more
