about

A song for a friend I barely knew, a long time ago

lyrics

We were friends when we were young
Before we knew what young was
Slacking off at every chance
Or maybe that was just me

School desk neighbors
We'd pass a paper between us
Of stick figures fighting to the death

We were friends when we were young
Before we knew what young was
Drawing pictures at every chance
Of stick figures fighting to the death
Stick figures fighting to the death

I was just another wave
In your ocean of friends
And I felt that you were just another in mine
Every drawing we did back then
We'd throw away
To make room
For the next

We were friends when we were young
Before we knew what young was
Drawing pictures at every chance
Of stick figures fighting to the death
Stick figures fighting to the death

You once told me that you cheated on your homework
And I laughed
because I didn't do mine
I always wondered how we'd grow up
With our messy ways of getting through life
Then one day, when I was sick in bed
I got a message telling me you were gone
I stared at my empty reply
I don't remember what finally I said

We were friends when we were young
Before we knew what young was
Drawing pictures at every chance
Of stick figures fighting to the death
Stick figures fighting to the death

Some days I'm ungrateful
For how lucky I am
I think of you
And you put me in my place

We were friends when we were young
Before we knew what young was
Drawing pictures at every chance
Of stick figures fighting to the death
Stick figures fighting to the death

Oceans empty without that wave
Oceans empty without that wave
