C'mon, Mom.
|
I'm so scared.
|
All the things you told me are coming true.
|
C'mon, now.
|
I'm too young to feel this tired.
|
Sorry you ran out of money so soon.
|
And drifting on the open sea won't get you there this time.
|
C'mon, friends.
|
Let's make those repairs.
|
It's your heart that's broken not your legs
|
and there's a fight to get into somewhere.
|
It's cool inside.
|
A friendly place to hide.
|
And it's a bad rain today so let's try not to speak of old times.
|
And it's a long shot but I'm looking for the good.
|
Just like you told me to do but I'm told it takes practice to improve.
|
You're a fucking liar and I'm leaving.
|
And you can keep all the friends that you made through me.
|
I'm lying too, I can't leave home alone.
|
I'd rather cut all these losses
|
and not take another bet for a bright new fucking day.
|
Let's shout from on high, we're still failing.
|
We still got more regrets than mistakes.
|
It takes focus at this level of failing.
|
But at least your friends can relate.
|
So write or call or just think of us from time to time.
|
I'll still be drifting. But he was so gifted. Fair enough.
