Adults Are the Real Monsters

I made promises to you for two years You were in the back of mind Just waiting for the right time Finally you came back home and I let you into mine You spent so many nights asleep on my couch Prepping you for interviews and talking about our future too I was excited to be doing what we wanted in the city It was always supposed to be you and me Then you got hit hard You lost the way to hear for a while But we picked you up and carried you through When you didn't think you'd make it to the next day You made a wager where the consequence would leave me behind And you'd still be unhappy just like I know you'll be When you realize this song is about you I want to pull you aside and selfishly say Don't do this to me You're the only friend I really tease because you do the same to me But this joke's gone too far I know you're worried about your scars I'll still hold you like I did on your birthday And tell you it will be okay And you'd still be unhappy just like I know you'll be When you realize this song is about you I want to pull you aside and selfishly say Don't do this to me
