Lyrics:
i see chemtrails in the sky
but i don’t see the plane
what the hell is my problem
with taking the blame
cause i play with my food
and then someone else takes it away
it’s so hard to believe
but i’m trying to change
i see lines in the sand
but i don’t see who made them
i still listen to that band
that you showed me last April
i still play with my food
i’m a child at the grownups table
it’s so hard to believe
but right now i feel stable
i moved away
and i grew a few inches
what a shame
i had a chance and i missed it
and there are some days when i hear that song
and i hate to admit it
but i miss it, I do
oh i miss it i miss you
i see chemtrails in the sky
but i don’t see the plane
i know that i feel it
but i don’t know the name
i play with my food
and then i throw it away
it’s so hard to believe
i have to grow up this way
i moved out
and i made some new friends
sometimes when I shout
it feels like no one hears it
and there are some days
when i think that somewhere you’re watching
as i grow up without you
oh i miss it i miss you

In the recorded clip, her dad is joking with her about playing with her food and how quickly she's eating. Such a stark contrast with the lyric "I still play with my food and then I throw it away."
When she says "I still play with my food, I'm a child at the grown-up's table" she's relating the little clip at the end to how she feels, small compared to such a big weight.
Gosh, I'll always have so much respect for Lizzy as a writer.

You are an incredible person Lizzy, i’m sure he’s looking down and watching you go through this incredible journey like only a dad could. And i’m so sure he’s proud of you.

My father is alive, yet I grieve him still, because he was absent. This song touched my soul. Thank you, Lizzy.

I lost my dad when I was 8 and this song makes me cry ecspeically the end. I miss my dad too. I can’t believe I have to to grow up this way either. I am now 18 and prom is coming up and I wish so much he could be here for it and for me. I miss him. Every day. It is hard for me to think about other kids going through that same thing because it is so traumatic. I just want him to be here and to give me a hug and then show me how cool he is lol

Someone once pointed out to me that some actors are brilliant not because of what they do, but because of what they don't do. My drum teacher once encouraged me to play the rests. This song is a great example of that kind of perception, taking the barest, simplest elements to leave a powerful impression.

Everytime he starts talking and calls her Elizabeth I feel it deep in my heart dude. I cry everytime

Melodies, vocal tone and vibe are very much Phoebe Bridgers. Quite awesome.

The fact that this song can be interpreted uniquely by every one listening, and that one can resonate deeply with the emotions portrayed is true artistry... Lizzy, I needed this... Thank you <3

life is about missing people, places, the past. people leave, they pass away, they move away. distance edges itself between you. i miss so many people

Dear Lizzy,
I'm so sorry for the loss of your dad. I think no one can really empathize cause it's your own pain and every pain is different.
Just wanna say thanks for sharing this part of your story with us.
Wish you all the best,
Greetings from Germany :)

Dear Lizzy McAlpine,
If you’re reading this, hi, I don’t normally make comments like this but I am so so moved, and inspired, and touched by your music I have to commend you for it.
You have a god given gift, something that is so beautifully human, yet indescribable. Thank-you so much for sharing your work with us. It’s a real rarity that an artist comes along and not only captures my attention, but my heart and my soul. Your music isn’t just a bunch of well thought out sounds, it’s an emotion, a journey of emotions.
You are incredible and I can only sit in awe because no matter what I say, words aren’t enough to explain what beauty you have created and are capable of creating.
Thank-you.

What a beautiful song. We love you Lizzy! He'll be proud from wherever he's watching.

my father passed away two years ago when I was 17 right before my senior year of high school. It is such a uniquely painful experience to lose a parent at a young age and you capture it beautifully. Music is one of the ways my father and I connected and this song along with headstones and landmines hit me in a way that no songs ever have.
Thank you for taking this painful experience and making something so special, I imagine these songs mean so much to you and I hope you know they mean a lot to others too.

I just lost my mom on May 4th. This song makes me tear up every time I hear it 🥺
25 |
Lizzy, I just know your father is proud of you. SO proud, just like all of us. Continue to just do what you’re doing now and I’m praying for you. Sorry for your loss, but at least your dad is at peace in Heaven now.
