First time I let you down
The streets were drying out
July was burning up
We almost didn't make it out

We break each other's spirits
If you can't take it: leave me now!
With me you change completely
Sweet fear you cannot live without

I'm the sadness you feel
I'm the reason you lie
I'm the drug you can't deal
I'm the perfect high
I'm the wound that still bleeds
The addiction you hide
I'm the scar that won't heal
I'm the myth that won't die
I'm the sting of the needle
The love of your life
The love of your life

This is a consequence
A broken confidence
I've accepted what I am
This is a consequence

We break each other's spirits
If you can't take it: leave me now!
With me you change completely
Sweet fear you cannot live without
I'm the sadness you feel
I'm the reason you lie
I'm the drug you can't deal
I'm the perfect high
I'm the wound that still bleeds
The addiction you hide
I'm the scar that won't heal
I'm the myth that won't die
I'm the sting of the needle
The love of your life

The love of your life
I'm the perfect high

I'm the sadness you feel
I'm the reason you lie
I'm the drug you can't deal
I'm the perfect high
I'm the junkie you see
Take a good look inside
I'm the feverish dream
In this lilac sky
I'm the sting of the needle
The love of your life




The love of your life
I'm the perfect high

Overall Meaning

The song "Lilac Sky" by Julia Vero is a melancholic tune that talks about the consequences of a toxic and addictive relationship. The song features a repeating chorus that lists various vices that the singer represents to their partner: "I'm the sadness you feel, I'm the reason you lie, I'm the drug you can't deal, I'm the perfect high." These lyrics underline the destructive nature of the relationship and suggest that the singer is aware of their own failings, even if they can't break away.


The first verse of the song hints at the beginnings of the toxic relationship, mentioning the first time that the singer let the other person down. The lyrics continue to describe the intense and dangerous nature of their relationship with lines like "We break each other's spirits" and "With me you change completely / Sweet fear you cannot live without." The chorus then repeats to emphasize the entangled and destructive nature of their partnership.


The bridge of the song features a repetition of the line "This is a consequence / A broken confidence." These lyrics suggest a sense of inevitability in the relationship's dissolution, which is only further underscored by the repeated chorus lines that reference pain, lies, addiction, and desperation. Ultimately, the song paints a picture of a relationship that is both damaging and impossible to leave.
