MilkyyMelodies - What Else Can I Do? [Alternate Universe Song]

★ mirabel ★
Hey isa~
You ready for the big day?
Uhhh, isabela?

★ isabela ★
Yes, yes
Mirabel, i'm ready!

★ mirabel ★
Well, your face isn't really giving off an i'm getting married vibe?
You don't have to do this, you know?

★ isabela ★
Yes i do!
For family

★ mirabel ★
Okay, isa
I just want you to know that whatever it is you're feeling
You should just let it out.. okay?

★ verse 1: isabela, (mirabel) ★
*sigh*
I just did something unexpected
Something bold
Something wrong
I never wanted this to happen but it's family
And it's mine
What else can i do?
(let it out, let it out, isa)
What else can i do?
(let it out, let it out)

I'll grow rows and rows of roses
Flor de mayo
Down the isle
I'll make perfect practiced poses
So much hides behind my smile

★ pre-chorus: isabela ★
What would they do if they knew what i was feeling in this moment?
I don't know where i'm going
What could i do if i just knew they wouldn't be disappointed?
I just needed to be
And they'd let me be

★ chorus: isabela ★
A hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs
Tangling vines
The smell of terror fills the air as i walk and i push through
What else can i do?

★ verse 2: isabela ★
Can i just run away, don't wanna stay
It's true
Everybody's watching me
I've gotta be like you
But i wanna feel the shiver of something new
I'm so sick of pretty
I want something true to pursue

★ pre-chorus: isabela ★
They all think that my life's been a dream (whoa) since the moment i opened my eyes
(how far do these roots go down?)
All they know are the blossoms i grow (whoa)
They can't see that i wither inside
How much can i hide?
All they want is a bride
I've tried!

★ chorus ★
A hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs
Tangling vines
The smell of terror fills the air as i walk and i push through
What else? what else?

What can you do when you are deeply madly stuck in a moment?
Stay composed and keep going!
What can you do when you know who you wanna be is imperfect?
But that's not okay
Gotta do everything his way

I'm coming through with mammillaria (mammillaria!)
Taking steps (taking steps)
I'll be fine (just takes time)
They way is clearer cause you're here and well all i have now is you!
What else can i do? (there's nothing i can do)
What else can i do? (there's nothing i can do)
What else can i do?
