I thought to myself why we couldn't be friends It isn't because you can't be friends with an ex It isn't because I still love you or you still love me It isn't because we haven't moved on It isn't because we're both depressed and think we are both better off It isn't because I miss you, my best friend It isn't because the memories flood back every now and then It isn't because you want to leave reality It isn't because I have too much to worry about besides the ghost of you It's simply because sometimes when people grow, they grow apart But we are both withering and worse off So tell me again, why can't we be friends?
