So now I'll go on writing songs and making friends
And try my hardest to be the best person I possibly can
You showed me how to look into myself and see the problem
And reminded me no matter who you are that we both got 'um
Now I think of you each time I stop to talk to someone I don't know
I can't get rid of you, I can't let go of something I can't hold
I miss having the option to call you when I'm feeling down
You always found a way to listen 'til you felt me through the phone
Now I walk around acting like I've learnt to deal with it
When I just want to sit with this so I can feel how real it is
I don't want to let you down
I hope I'm making you proud
You thought me how to be myself but right now I just don't know how
Can't seem to figure out exactly what I'm supposed to do
Sometimes I cry until I can't
Sometimes I laugh until I'm blue
It's like you lived til you learned what it feels like to be dead
And then you died so you could finally feel alive again
You will always be my friend
Forever ever be my friend
This is just a new beginning
Time will see us through again
'Til the end, 'til it ends
You will always be my friend
This is just a new beginning
Time will see us through again [x2]
I find myself between feeling bad for what I lost
And feeling grateful for the privilege of knowing you for so long
"Kill The King" You told me, I asked you what it meant
You said it means to feel with all your heart and die in your head
So now I try but haven't figured out how to accept that I won't ever get to see you again until I'm dead
Remember on the plane flying home from out west
How we made a friendly bet of who could sell more CD's to our fans
Even though I always knew you that would win every night without trying
Now I'm faced with that meat I can't bite through
I ask myself the question "I wonder what would Mike do"
But I know what you would do
You'd take your time and think it through and if it didn't come to you, you'd walk away and keep your cool
And even though the memories are blowing in the wind
Just know no matter what, You'll always have me as a friend...
