Sorry My Friend

THE LYRICS:
First I saw your car
Driving close to me
No longer just a voice
You stood in front of me
And I only talked loud to cover
How my hands were shaking
It’s good to make new friends
But I was problematic, friend.We sat in my living room
I could tell you were warm - I could feel it
My hands still shaking
That spot next to you looked so empty
I didn’t wanna scare you
And strain communication
It’s good to make new friends
But I was overwhelmed my friend.And I didn’t know the trouble biting at my neck
And I didn’t know
I never had the strength to say I don’t think so
And I still find intrigue in the things that drain me
While I’m waiting for someone who’ll sustain me
I wanted to tell you I’m sorryYou saw me break in half
Carry on – act like a freak
All because I thought
I was feeling something unique
Been the 508th priority in my own life
It’s good to make new friends
But now I’m wearisome, my friend.
