about

LUCY is a simple & relatable song that explores the themes of trust, betrayal, and vulnerability using the iconic metaphor of Lucy pulling the football from Charlie Brown. Through heartfelt lyrics and evocative melodies, the song explores placing trust in others only to be let down, time and time again. Despite the let down, the message in this song is one of staying true to yourself & loving yourself while vowing to never change.

lyrics

You’ve been playing Lucy
Pull that ball away
You can call me Charlie
I’m falling on my face

All that pile of trust
It’s been worn down then away
You like playing Lucy
That’s how you’ll stay

I don't feel the shame
I don’t regret a day
I don't feel out of place
I don't owe a thing
& You’ll always be Lucy It’s just a game

I’m as light as a feather
But a heavyweight too
Still as sharp as ever, a bullwhip thru and thru

I don't feel the shame
I don’t regret a day
I don't feel out of place
I don’t owe a thing
& you’ll always be Lucy, it’s just a game

So Lucy Lucy Lucy
Pull that ball away
You can call me Charlie
Here I'll always stay
