SC.7.1. EXT. Forest. Dawn. Birds singing

The track starts cross-fading in from the ambiance

Lily says: It's just another day...

Daddy takes Lily on a walk to the forest
The lyrics starting in the middle describe a rape scene

[verse]
And the pines stood tall to watch me fall
As the lilies bent down and saw me crawl
And the time stood still and listened to my heart
And the birds seized to sing as it pounded loud

Nobody told me, and I never knew
Where the wind came from and where the wind blew

[hook]
Let's pretend I like it this way
Let's pretend I don't feel betrayed
Let's pretend it's just another day
Let's pretend, let's pretend, let's!

Let's pretend I'm perfectly fine
With your lechy breath on my spine
Let's pretend it isn't too bad
Let's pretend I still have a dad

Let's pretend I'm happy and safe
Let's pretend it isn't a rape
Let's pretend one day I'll forget
Let's pretend I don't want you dead!

Let's pretend, let's pretend
Let's pretend I don't want you dead!
It's just another day, it's just another day...
Let's pretend. It's just another day
