a lost friend

Don’t you know you’re falling?

Can’t you see it gets worse?

This grave I’ve dug

will be the end of us.

 

Don’t you know you’re falling down?

 

You signed your death

sending me away.

You’re falling,

there’s nothing left for you to hold on to.

 

I don’t understand

why my heart falls with you.

There’s nothing left for me to hold on to,

except for the past.

 

Don’t you know you’re falling down?

 

Before I bury you

with new souls,

I want you to know

That it’s me, not you, who will be missed.

 

You’re dead to me.
