Lyrics

I knew you like the back of my left hand, my right hand man
The only person on this world that I could stand
Not a single one in this goddamn town who understood my plans
But you'd withstand
We see each other on the weekends sometimes
Your hair looks perfect and your makeup looks fine
You say you're gonna be real busy, have to go to lots of parties
While I sit at home and waste my time
Thinking bout how nice life was at ages 8 or 9
We catch up once a month but it feels different
Now I know
What life's like
On my own
Hey, do you still bicker with your siblings?
Asking questions
With answers
I'll never know
And it feels distant
Oh, you feel distant
I'm bearing witness
To the sickness
*I slept over your house nearly every day
And I know it sounds weird and cliche
But I danced with your sister in the rain
Drinking out of shells at the beach
Giggling as we told our moms that we were from the sea*
Memories flood back in but these things happen
And I just
Gotta learn
To let go
Do your parents still fight every weekend?
Always wondering
Bout things
I'll never know
And it feels distant
Oh, you feel distant
I'm bearing witness
To the sickness
Oooooo
I'm bearing witness
To what's within us
Friendship's fictitious
We saw each other on a weekday this time
Walking with your friends and I'm laughing with mine
As the doors begin to slide
I catch the recognition in your eye
And I hope that someday we'll be fine
I smile to you, you wave goodbye
It feels distant (mmm)
You feel distant
I'm bearing witness
To the sickness
I'm bearing witness
To the sickness
I'm bearing witness
To the quickness
I'm bearing witness
To the stillness
I'm bearing witness
No forgiveness
