Left alone wasted and broke/
This life has become a forest of trees/
And you are just a falling leaf/
A deterrent path that leads to nowhere/
I’ve become so cold, numb and my face of stone/
Weltering and weathering away in the winter’s age/
Looking back at all the times I tried to re-engage/
A friendship derailed from the railroad tracks/
The embers sparked into our lungs too fast/
Turned our faces red and we caught that disease/
Spread and spread the hatred till we were incapacitated to our knees/
Changed the locks and locked up what was left of our azure hearts/
While the warm happiness faded in the steel breeze/
There is no reconciliation- we are beating a dead relationship/
I remember reaching and reaching while our ship sank/
Swimming in the ocean of former lovers hands/
While “Best friends means I pull the trigger…” echoed throughout the land/
We were such a tight wound triangle, the three of us separated in sand/
Removing yourself from the situation you removed me in the process/
Let go of me and take your promises so empty as a knife in your chest/
The ice has won over the sea and forever frozen our memories will be/
It’s fifty-fifty and you only had a nickel for every one of my dimes/
Suffocated and coagulated you just don’t do that to a friend/
And get away with still being close to their ex//
