do you remember when we used to be best friends?
and then you kept on passing out on the weekends,
and now the only time we ever hang out is in hospitals
I remember when we used to be punk rock
anarchy's a path you should never walk
but I still hate the government if you ever want to talk
do you remember the last time you came over?
or the last time that you smiled when you were sober
and I know its been rough but I think that you've had enough.
and you tell me you're unhappy and I act like I'm surprised
the well ain't always it just needs a little time,
and don't we all...
stop fighting and let those old leaves fall
I still remember when you used to stay over,
you'd lay out on my bed like a four leaf clover
you'd say "its fate not luck"
but now you just don't give a fuck
do you remember when we used to go downtown
we'd sneak into the clubs but only drink the sound
But now the only time you hang with clique is when you need a fix
I remember when you told all your friends that you quit
but you pulled me aside and said "Connor, I've gotta split"
and now I don't know where you are but I hope its better than this
and you never write me letters but I can't say I'm surprised
you never had a way with words, but standing by my side
was enough...
goddamnit, I should have called your bluff.
