You'll learn too quickly,
Not all friends are worth it.
20 years old, and trading my angst,
For empty space.
I hope it was worth it,
Because I'm not so sure anymore.
Lets take a pause,
And wait a year,
You'll disappear.
This empty,
Cold body,
Will be the map.
Tonight it will lead me back to you,
How could I see.
That breathing alone heavily,
In my old room,
With the lights off,
Only brought this bored boys bones to rot.
This bored boys bones begin to rot.
I don't want to be afraid
'Cause again and again,
I'm reminded I'm shit,
You saw the worst parts,
and you stuck through it
Now that I'm older,
You've taught me to regret.
Broken promise,
I'm not worth it.
Theres no good reason,
Left in this desert,
For me to ever talk to you again.
I hope misery becomes your only friend,
I hope misery becomes your only care.
I thought you met telly,
And turned me in to Casper.
I wanted you to know,
Never follow me home.
I know that nothing stays the same,
And people change,
But you don't have to.
