Song for a Dead Friend

Danny, my friend

I think you knew me better than I ever knew you

You read every chapter and I just glossed right over it

And pretended I knew

But I believed in you

I loved you for your brilliance

And your way of making everything absurd

And I relied on you to make me see

The foolishness of paragraphs that were better as one word

What could I have told you to make you think again

We draw the same conclusion, but we choose a different end

'Cause when you tear it down it only looks more ragged

And when you build it up it only looks more fake

So why not let it be, at least until tomorrow

And then you just might see your sad mistake

'Cause life had more to give than what you take

Danny, my friend

Forgive me if I break our rule

But I think it's overdue

I really cared about you and I didn't think that I could love a friend

As much as I loved you

And we were always friends

We were Captain Jim and Billy

The super-human, crime-avenging twins

Oh, I'm gonna miss you, and I truly am alone now

For there's no one to congratulate my sins

I wish I could have been for you a more consistent friend

The chapters that I skipped I'm going to have to read again

But when I tear it down it only looks more ragged

And when I build it up it only looks more fake

But I can't let it be, 'cause part of me died with you

And there's lots of pages missing from my book

'Cause you had more to give than what I took
