[Verse 1]
We had your party today
Your brother looks the same
Fifteen aging school friends
All dressed in black and grey
You would've hated it too
All anybody talked about was you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Luke's doing well
You'd be proud if you saw him
Carry you to your grave
Darling, when did we get so brave?

[Chorus]
Goodbye, friend
I'll make pretend you're here
I'll miss the sound
Of you around

[Verse 2]
We made bad jokes about you
The way we always used to
Your self-disparaging mind
You've left us all behind
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I am so sorry if I let you down
When the world was so clearly choking you out
Whеn the life I was leading kеpt me away
Oh, my dearest, that cannot be you in the grave, there

[Chorus]
Goodbye, friend
I'll make pretend you're here
I'll miss the sound
Of you around
Of you around
Of you around
