lyrics

It was nice to meet your friend
Sorry he’s only permanent
On a stone
I’ve got friends like that too

And your mom said she was grateful
That I was there when you heard the news
As if I was the key to calming your insides
I’m nobody’s key

The sun it always sets so pretty
When death is in the air
And I tried to tell you something new
But it only felt borrowed
It only felt used

You say you haven’t talked like this in years
That warms, but I hope you’re still hiding things
So my silence is easier to swallow
Please tell me you’re still lying just a little

My silence has always made me inadequate

I wish I could talk about it
But I don’t visit her anymore
I don’t regret my silence on the subject
What good does it do if she’s not coming back for her son?
She’s not coming back for anyone
