"Listen, man, uh, this is a weird time
And this is just weird overall, so I'm just gonna say it, um
I really love you, man
I'm really, I'm really proud that we've been friends
And I would love to hang out again
Everyone I talk to often
But none of that really matters to me because I think you are a big success
Dreams, we were hanging out when we were kids, do come true
So, um, you proved
All that I'm trying to say is I miss you, man
Listen, I know it's not about me
Um, I, um, I love and miss you, man, if you wanna call me back
But I just want to say, and just a conversation, I think, would go a long way for me
I'm proud to have known you
That's whеre I'm at"

Times get so ruthlеss
But none as cruel as this
I can't feel my legs
As you sat beside my bed
And said

Don't tell me you're sorry
Not unless you mean it
And you don't
Don't tell me you're sorry
I don't want to hear it
Just go
"Back in the day, we were at, um, Kory
We were in second grade"

This time, unlike last
I ain't coming back
He suggests a few more down the hatch
Says that it could help this fever pass
In one way or another
You dirty rotten bastard
You'll be happier than ever
You dirty rotten bastard

Don't tell me you're sorry
Not unless you mean it
And you don't
Don't tell me you're sorry
I don't want to hear it
Just go

I run it back in my head
Every now and then
I remember what you said to me
It was like a symphony back then
But along with the wrinkles in your skin
It aged, decayed, and ran its course
And it just made the hard parts worse
You sucked my blood
And drained my life
You drained the blue out of the sky
It was sometime around Easter you
Showed up
I saw your ribs through your T-shirt stained
In blood
You said, "Hey, it's nice to meet you
I got some shit to teach you"
But you pay up front
There was this lightning in his eyes
That conquered braver lives than mine
I'm pacing as the light blinks red
With traces of it on my breath
You'll have to pardon my insistence
But I'm sure you wouldn't want to miss this
Well, back in April
The coffee table didn't seem so far away
He turns me over
Pats my shoulder
Tells me everything's okay
What a lie
What a lie
What a lie
What a lie
What a lie
What a lie
