When I first heard this song I immediately thought of them. It’s honestly so tragic to me how they aged Jon up in the comics and his life is reaching so far in this short amount of time when he’s still supposed to be a child.
The last to images can also be associated with another Mitski song which lyrics go “You have so much to do, and I have nothing ahead of me.” I think it fits in Damian perspective. While we know Damian is going to move on and grown a person and with relationships. Jon has already done that so I think he feels as if he has lost this person who he did so much with and is now doing so much good with another person/people. Like they still do talk and see each other in some comics but now there is a gap in it. I do think it’s good that they get to shine by themselves I just wish it wasn’t this way. It’s almost like when you can feel a relationship of any kind drifting away for reasons that you cannot explain.
(My little hehe haha rant 🤭😬 sorry about the bad rushed quality of the pieces)
a gentle melancholy song. hope you like it, tumblr dears. lyrics:
I knew all the things
I wanted to do
Came prepared to play
And then I met you
You might say
i got lost that day
oh i got lost,
in a wonderful way
i'd seen skies of
a pretty orange-pink hue
that color had no name
no name i knew
until the day we met
and then i knew
that was the color
the color of you
the color of you,
and all hopeful souls
oh, my dear
what a mournful glow
like the tides your kind
they come and go
but always with that same
pretty orange-pink glow.
