May 2013
The flash of that camera shook us all
We separated all at once after the parties
Disappeared from our lives
We only hear stories of your journey
Making it big or breaking it all
You got the pretty girl going to Utah
The quiet acquaintance moving to Florida
Best Friend staying in touch 500 million miles away
I see you all and I’m just the lonesome castaway
I’ll stay here and sink in these past to present events
I look back at all those fun times and think of you all
But why did it have to end so soon, who dropped the ball?
Oh yeah, the ******* end was coming
We just didn’t notice that impending doom
The end of apathetic youth they call it
What a strike from a reality hit
We’ll bump into each other and talk on long bus rides
Let’s try to do something together
Or does this mean you’re moving on?
To bigger, better things?
Or are you just **** tired of me?
How can it be?
We were such good friends
Another wound with that knife
I guess that’s just life
