crazy baby, why did you do this? stupid boy, what were you thinking?
i know nothing stays the same
but if you’re willing to play the game
it’s coming round again
so don’t mind if i fall apart
there’s more room in a broken heart
& they moved. there are no more cheesy country decorations out front & there’s an SUV & a truck in the driveway. there’s a stained-glass lighthouse in the window.
it’s the best friends that need you
in my case, believe you
it’s the best friends’ lives kiss you
in my case, i’ll miss you
there are three bouquets & two cards & one long strand of red stars. the rocks & shells & pennies & marbles have frozen to the bench that still doesn’t have your name on it.
so fall in love while you can still hold your head up high
& pretend that you’re alive again
(it’s friends that leave you here in the end)
happy birthday, baby: you should have been celebrating. growing older would have suited you so very well- i wish you'd had more faith in life.
