note to james from ex friends & lovers:

we forsake you.

you have let us down
time & time again
remember that time you said you'd grow up?

we're as loyal to you as you are to us
how's it feel?

to be burned
and tread upon

tied to the cross
and all the reckless abandon

we raised our glasses
and crossed our horns

void of hope
and at the end of your rope

shed the dead skin
and the old soul
you can't reinvent yourself
and all the wasted adrenalin

we don't mind the bad feelings
or the negative thoughts
as long as you remember
that mountains can't be moved
or you can't battue dreams

ah, the dreams
forlorn love
and missed opportunities
battered to something meaningless

as dismal as the terrain you've explored
we've left it like we found it

a landscape less ignored
