about

In the middle of dealing with my mother’s death, I received a phone call from a childhood friend. She told me she had some bad news. It turned out, she was just diagnosed with leukemia and was set to undergo treatments.

After our phone call I sat on my floor, shocked and devastated. I think the entire writing of this song took about 10 minutes. It’s a tribute to our friendship; from the day we met up to that very phone call.

lyrics

i watched the clock for a second. the right hand was moving so fast. i couldn’t stop it with all of my might. well, i’m looking for that feeling to pass. i found a friend in you. when we were just 16, you sewed my pants and i loved you. we were young, we were crazy. we were dumb in a small town. when i met you girl i saw yr house. we had 2 friends who were in love but, who knew what they’re dreaming of? remember going to yr house? remember sitting all around? the day you sewed my pants and i hurt yr leg…id give anything for one more day. all of yr friends they are here. me, you and all of them. we grew up and grew apart. i found out you were in love. i saw you on yr wedding day. i was proud you had made it safe. you came up a winters night. we were just 3 friends passing time. it was like nothing had changed, i still remember yr last name. you called me up, the dead of fall. you told me news i didn’t want to know. i had a feeling it would be bad but, i never expected that. i tell you girl, “i’m so sorry”. because, no one deserves to feel that weak. yet, here i am wasting my life. i can’t look at myself, ill be alright. i left home when i was young. forgot about the things id done. forgot about the things i want. forgot the town we were in love. everybody is changing. either getting married, getting kids, getting strong, getting sick...i can’t believe in all of this.
