The first day I arrived
I saw your spirit in the shadows of
The harsh fluorescent light
But every road must end
I’m tired of expecting the pain to come
And visit me again
But I’m stronger
Than you ever gave me credit for
And I’ve spent my hours wailing
On my childhood bedroom floor
And now you’ve sailed so far off from
Our unknown
With your house and your life and your kids
And your accelerated milestones
Well I hope that you know
And thank God I survived
I’m moving further than they ever could
Accomplish in their lives
But still you haunt my dreams
I’m tried to understand these images
To find out what they mean
And I miss my friends so fucking much
You wouldn’t know
I’m a nomad now
You’ve taken so much away
I worked so hard for
But I won’t give the satisfaction
Of giving up this chain reaction
I can still repair this broken soul
But I won’t waste my breath on them
And I won’t make these mistakes again
But I can’t hate the beauty inside of you
No I can’t hate the beauty inside of you
Because I know I’ll find my way back through
This weathered dirt
Restrained by no one who cares
To count my worth
And I’m so sorry for trying to care
But I can’t take our friendship
And bring it elsewhere
And I hope to meet you both some day
I hope to meet you both some day
I hope that you know
I hope that you know my dear
I hope that you know
That I’ll miss you for all these years
Well I hope that you know
