I tried to tell you so

Don’t look away from this now

Don’t tell me that we are done

Doesn’t seem that we were ever true

But i am here and i am with you.

I will help you

Even if you turn me away

I will come running with the water for the flames that seem to have set ablaze

Our friendship was a puzzle once before

We fitted together so perfectly

Of course the life we live is just like a drama gig

The life we live

Why is it that every time I raise my voice

I seem to not be heard

You can hear me now

You see me through the gray

I know that time wasn’t worth it

I know that what we said was outrage

Oh but best friend

Raise your hand out to me

Raise voice unto to me

I will hear you

I will catch you

Don’t worry a thing

It’s all blurry now

Our faces burning with tears

For we were caught in the shot of pure guilt

Oh best friend i am with you

I am here and i will be there

I know we will wake blue as could be the very next day

Possibility of more pain is on the way

The possibility that they will not understand

The possibility that we are slipping away

Oh because of one simple thing

One simple thing

So simple

Our world is chaos covered with lights and machines that cover us in guilt and mystery

One click. Two clicks. We click send

Oh they say best friend

Playing with fire is when you are bound get burned

It's getting so hot

I’m burning up

Oh but best friend

We fueled the fire

That is burning us slowly

Oh but best friend

We are crying

Oh but best friend

We are not dying

They better prepare

Cause tomorrow the fire goes out

And will sit in misery

Wondering why it went this far

We got our word out

But was right or was it wrong

Punishment is ticking

Like the clock on the wall

30 minutes of silence

30 minutes of silent crying

Oh but best friend we are in this together
