Dear friend
I swear youʼre alive but you donʼt know how to live
You canʼt drown your demons with that bottle in your hand
Is this all youʼve ever wanted
Can we be more than the forgotten
Dear friend
Letters like these wonʼt be able to mend
2am phone calls to old friends
Is this all youʼve ever wanted
Can we be more than the forgotten
Five drinks down
Endless rounds
If I had just picked up the phone
Ignored the signs
Ignored your cries
And I left you high and dry to fend for yourself
Dear friend
I know that those dreams wonʼt fade away
I know that your legacy wonʼt end today
Is this all youʼve ever wanted
Can we be more than the forgotten
Five drinks down
Endless rounds
If I had just picked up the phone
Ignored the signs
Ignored your cries
And I left you high and dry to fend for yourself
Hold fast hope
No one should have to fend for yourself
