My Dear Friend

from Heavy Try by passion fanfare

lyrics

I was walking home
with my dear friend
then we saw them
then they saw us

I always thought my friend was scared
that I had to look after her
and then we saw them
then they saw my friend

they stared us down for a minute
then they jumped cackling onto our shoulders
breaking our backs and forgetting our futures
my friend was singing as I slipped away

it wasn't as much as I wanted to see
but I loved it enough that I'm not sorry
I'm in love, I'm in love

then they cut up our bodies
piled up our digits and all of our entrails
tore out the organs that always were swelling
and making life hell in our school days

back then I always burned in my lungs and my teeth
but it wasn't something that I could defeat
because I'm in love, I'm in love

and I just felt like a horror
always a movie and never a Shaker
I'd never go dancing, my lungs all were showing
because I was dead from my fist to my face

and I'm not as smart as I wanted to be
but I love you enough that I'm not sorry
I'm in love, I'm in love

I'm in love

they kept us in the basement
studied our movements and sewed up our eyelids
and I know, and I know I'm a worthless piece of shit
and I feel pretty blessed about all of it

death is a factory and life is a nightmare
but love is the color that brightens your jawbone
and I'm in love, I'm in love

sweetness was shaking in all of her hallways
and I wanted her hands till I couldn't see straight
sweetness is shaking in all of the hallways
and I'll watch Your hands for the rest of time
