[Verse 1]
We hit every red light on the way to those you left behind
Something just don't sit right with suicide and sunshine
Top 40 on the radio, mind racing but we move so slow
Familiar smell of dead friend
The moment that I got there
Message that you left on the mirror by your bed came through
You apologized again like you did too often and this time it's not alright
But I forgive you

[Chorus]
Now I'm pulling at the sides, trying to cover up the hole that you left
Telling everyone it's gonna be fine when it never is
And I'll never have the words to say what you meant
So I won't
Just one more flight, my friend and you're gonna be home

[Verse 2]
The first thing that I thought of when I heard that you had killed yourself
Was how stupid I'm about to look with my foot inside of my mouth
'Cause the last thing that I said when you were still around
Was "you do this for attention or you'd have killed yourself by now"

[Pre-Chorus]
Message that you left on the mirror by your bed came through
You apologized again like you did too often and this time it's not alright
But I forgive you
[Chorus]
Now I'm pulling at the sides, tryna cover up the hole that you left
Telling everyone it's gonna be fine when it never is
And I'll never have the words to say what you meant
So I won't
Just one more flight, my friend, and you're gonna be home

[Post-Chorus]
And I keep thinking you're gonna walk up those stairs
Smiling, running your fingers through your hair
And no one here's said a lot since you did what you did
'Cause if we don't talk, then you're not really dead

[Spoken Word]
"I'm feeling pretty good man, actually had a really lovely evening"
"[?]"
"Yeah, it's alright"

[Chorus]
Now I'm pulling at the sides, tryna cover up the hole that you left
Telling everyone it's gonna be fine when it never is
And I'll never have the words to say what you meant
So I won't
Just one more flight, my friend, and you're gonna be home

[Post-Chorus]
And I keep thinking you're gonna walk up those stairs
Smiling, running your fingers through your hair
And no one here's said a lot since you did what you did
'Cause if we don't talk, then you're not really dead
