Your songs always seem to capture an emotion of mine and comfort me knowing I'm not the only one experiencing them. Thank you so much for another banger Lily, I look forward to your future songs! ❤❤
Lyrics It hit me, I was scared of dying Thought of all the things I gave up trying A neverending car ride Windows rollin' down, I... Couldn't stop, couldn't stop Crying Moonlit walls Crumble to pieces Fragments lost, they Prove my existence Time and space Crawl to a slow Sit in silence I sink when I'm alone So I look up At the ceiling fan Everything feels lighter Staring at the ceiling fan So I look up At the ceiling fan Everything feels lighter Staring at the ceiling fan Life is putting me through some test Toss me a bone, take this awful mess I solved it once before But there's always more and more and more Stay up till the sunrise Butterflies in my eyes Didn't I, didn't I Tell you? Keep on falling behind Chest is feeling so tight It carved a hole inside And grew Moonlit walls Crumble to pieces Fragments lost, they Prove my existence Time and space Crawl to a slow Sit in silence I sink when I'm alone So I look up At the ceiling fan Everything feels lighter Staring at the ceiling fan So I look up At the ceiling fan Everything feels lighter Staring at the ceiling fan (At the ceiling fan) (At the ceiling fan)
such a beautiful song and OMGGG THE ANIMATIONS?? THE COLORS???? the way the artstyle changed when the chorus hits. damn- another song straight into my playlist yup yup
If you do find yourself often "staring at the ceiling fan", or as it's more often described, "staring off into space", there is a word for that - dissociation. This whole song's lyrics are about the experience of dissociating, and I find it fascinating from a mental health perspective. Oh, and the song and the MV are really beautiful. Congrats on the excellent song, Lily!
I discover you recently with "not too late" and I just wanted to congratulate you because it seems to me like all the songs you write are made with passion. It's a beautiful feeling to watch your channel, I can't explain it. It just feels like you've really put something of you into each video. Not all of them are of my liking, but the passion you put in each of these projects can only be defined as inspiring. I hope one day I can master the same courage you put in yourself in my dreams too. Thank you for keeping being yourself
Idk what it is about Lily's songs, but I always felt like they speak to me, and it's just butterflies in my heart every time. Another absolute banger 🩷🩷🩷
When you turn rumination, depression and anxiety into an art piece. I think this song will have a special place in my heart. It reminds me of the times it was hard to pick myself up.
Lily you have been on a ROLL recently!! You’ve released so many songs in the last few months and I’m so proud of you! You’ve come so far from Dreamy Night (although that will always be one of the best songs!) and I am so excited to see where your music career takes you in the future! Keep up the amazing songs and these amazing music videos!
listening to lily's songs at 1am hits different. ceiling fan really has to be in my top 3 fav lily's released song, the lyrics, the intro, really put what i'm feeling into words in 2023.
been so amazing to see lily dive into new music directions this year! the syncopation adds to this kind of haunting but relatable feeling and i always appreciate her introspective lyricism 🥺🫶 tysm for another beautiful MV lily!!
There are so many layers of meaning behind the lyrics and the music video. I really like this song! I put my thoughts on some of the lyrics below. "a never ending car ride" a metaphor for the relentless thoughts that plague her "i / couldn't stop, couldn't stop / crying" she is unable to do anything except cry. she can't stop the thoughts, nor can she stop crying. "moonlit walls crumble to pieces" the cage that she uses to try to contain herself, her emotions and thoughts, is broken, and (see next quote) "fragments lost / they prove my existence" she knows that these fragments (emotions, thoughts experiences) are what makes her human. perhaps the "fragments lost" implies that she shows her self to other people, and in that way, gives those pieces of herself to others. "time and space crawl to a slow" shows how long these moments feel. she wants it to stop, but it feels like the opposite happens - as though time slows down. "sit in silence" she can't do anything but think, but that just worsens the feeling of spiraling. perhaps she has no energy to do anything else anymore. "i sink when i'm alone" she can't fight it, can't do anything but let it happen. "so i look up at the ceiling fan / everything feels lighter staring at the ceiling fan" the plain walls with the ceiling fan is safe, predictable, and monotone. much better to stick to something comforting, even if it is monotonous, than losing herself in her thoughts. the monotone colors interspaced with bright, galaxy-like colors throughout the music video are likely a representation of the boring, safe life versus the world of experiences outside the room with the ceiling fan. some of the experiences outside would be fun and exciting, and others would be hurtful and depressing. but even a little bit of hurt is enough to make her want to stay inside, where it is safe, where she won't get hurt. "moonlit walls crumble to pieces" but she has to leave sometimes, perhaps unwillingly (because the walls crumble on their own, she doesn't intentionally leave), and it hurts. there's way more that i could analyze, but i think i'll leave it here for now.
This and Last Cup of Coffee are very interesting pictures of depression and anxiety, from a lyrical and musical perspective. Good shit. Pretty cool to see your musical lane develop.
THANK YOU FOR RELEASING ANOTHER SONG!! IVE HEARD YOUR PREVIOUS SONGS LIKE 100 MILLION TIMES AND IVE BEEN CRAVING FOR MORE SCRUMPTIOUS MELODIES!! AND THIS IS PERFECT THANK YOU THANK YOU
ohhh this hit hard . thank you for making songs and putting your vulnerability out there ; you are a genius and ahead of the song going crazy just in itself , you have made so many people feel seen :)
wooooooah that was fantastic, wow--one of your best songs!! Also, the production was amazing, shout-out Farhan for absolutely killing it. Love those strings :D
This is my new favourite song AHHHH!!! I love both the audio and the visuals, especially the contrast between the calmer parts and the more intense parts. A banger as always!!
Yet another great song that I feel portrays different kind of emotions. Staring at the ceiling fan really sometimes makes it feel lighter >w< thank you Lily for making these❤️
thank you for this one. while all your songs are straight bops, this is one of the ones that hit harder and really stirred up something. i can't even count the number of times i've replayed it.
such beautiful visuals and outstanding lyrics!! youve always been such a comfort to me and your music has gotten me through some very difficult times. thank you for being such an amazing person lily :3 you truly make this world a better place
Man there's something so HAUNTING about this song. It's so vaguely creepy and drapes heavily on the shoulders with weighted sadness. It's such an experience, I love it.
thank u for making relatable music for over a decade now. lily pichu forever !

Lyrics
It hit me, I was scared of dying
Thought of all the things I gave up trying
A neverending car ride
Windows rollin' down, I...
Couldn't stop, couldn't stop
Crying
Moonlit walls
Crumble to pieces
Fragments lost, they
Prove my existence
Time and space
Crawl to a slow
Sit in silence
I sink when I'm alone
So I look up
At the ceiling fan
Everything feels lighter
Staring at the ceiling fan
So I look up
At the ceiling fan
Everything feels lighter
Staring at the ceiling fan
Life is putting me through some test
Toss me a bone, take this awful mess
I solved it once before
But there's always more and more and more
Stay up till the sunrise
Butterflies in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I
Tell you?
Keep on falling behind
Chest is feeling so tight
It carved a hole inside
And grew
Moonlit walls
Crumble to pieces
Fragments lost, they
Prove my existence
Time and space
Crawl to a slow
Sit in silence
I sink when I'm alone
So I look up
At the ceiling fan
Everything feels lighter
Staring at the ceiling fan
So I look up
At the ceiling fan
Everything feels lighter
Staring at the ceiling fan
(At the ceiling fan)
(At the ceiling fan)
Good to see Lily making a Title Fight reference
such a beautiful song and OMGGG THE ANIMATIONS?? THE COLORS???? the way the artstyle changed when the chorus hits. damn- another song straight into my playlist yup yup
Lily's voice is so amazing!! This is immediately going into my comfy playlist ❤❤❤

the vocals, the lyrics, the music, the art & music video, everything about this song is SO GOOOOOOD THANK YOU LILY!!!

Idk what it is about Lily's songs, but I always felt like they speak to me, and it's just butterflies in my heart every time. Another absolute banger 🩷🩷🩷
This is probably my new favorite song by Lily. It hits so close to home, and this sound is something new from Lily, and I like it a lot.
When you turn rumination, depression and anxiety into an art piece. I think this song will have a special place in my heart. It reminds me of the times it was hard to pick myself up.
Make as many songs as possible please. Every time you release one my serotonin goes through the roof. I wish you good luck
The sound of this is SO UNIQUE AHHHH. For some reason this gives me heavy video game vibes, I think it's the sounds used and I absolutely love it.
Instantly became my favorite piece by her, it's so good 😭
Lily you have been on a ROLL recently!! You’ve released so many songs in the last few months and I’m so proud of you!

i'd say this is relatable but i dont have a ceiling fan
ALL OF LILY'S SONGS ARE AMAZING AAAAA

pls analyze more ;___; loved your interp of thjis song

This is so beautiful!
