about

dedicated to an old friend

lyrics

I thought I saw you on the street the other day
I cried out, "Hey John", you just turned and walked away
So I wrote you a message in a bottle on the shore
I hope you go there on vacation, we could get together
If you're not feeling alright, well I'm feeling fine
If you're not feeling alright, I'm feeling fine

You said "Who are you to judge?" Who are you?
I said "I'm sorry man, I can't support you"
You said "I got shit going on", I can relate
I don't know if it's my fault or if I made mistakes
'cause I know you have, you know it too
Just be a man, confront your fears and break through
I got shit going on, I got shit going on
Back in a time when I could forgive almost anything

But no more man, I'm sorry

I saw a shirt the other day, I thought I'd send it to you
I thought I'd cut up the material the way I wanna cut you
Been sending you some emails
Been shooting you some texts
What the fuck happened to you?
Where the fuck is my friend?

You said "Who are you to judge?" Who are you?
I said "I'm sorry man, I can't support you"
You said "I got shit going on", I can relate
I don't know if it's my fault or if I made mistakes
'cause I know you have, you know it too
Just be a man, confront your fears and break through
I got shit going on, I got shit going on
Back to a place where I could forgive almost anything

It's not your fault
It is though.

I saw you tracing faces in the rain outside my house
I like the way your girlfriend looked inside her new blue blouse
I'd wonder if you trade her to me just to make amends
It's this shit that goes on in my head
I looked into your eyes and you looked into mine
I couldn't feel the ground beneath, the stars in the black sky
Against the clouds, the frogs croaked on

So we stood outside your car on the lake by the waterway
Every time i go there now, I don't feel I can stay
Awake for long like I am dreaming
The only thing that keeps me away?
The sound of you just screaming.
