My Window Needs a New Friend

from Hope? by DRTYUNCL

lyrics

Do you remember those beautiful summer days
Where we'd hang, just me, you and the crew that drifted away?
Perhaps you can recall those yellow leaves from the fall
They always seemed so much vivid when we were younger, you don't even call
No more, don't text, you could give a fuck less
About promises from the past, had to learn to forget you
That's a fuckin' regret too,
Add it to the pile of sadness while I burn the next few
Cigarettes in shaky hands, bloody fingernails, broken plans
No one there to pick me up when I get blacked out drunk again
I stumble in to the Stumble Inn order a Rum and Gin
The bartender asks what's wrong, where do I begin?
My friends stay at arm's length, I can't think straight
My days have melted into a drug fueled haze
My strange ways turn off everything but the lights
Can't stay awake during the day, I can't sleep at night
Everything I write is startin' to sound watered down
So please shut the fuck up and grab me another round
And I'll take it to go, but I may not make it back home
If I do I'll look out my bedside window and think more

Do you remember what it was like to be in love?
The rush of endorphins racin' through your blood
Do you remember the community of feelin' unity
At a party at Payty's drunk and drivin' in the Mercedes?
Maybe you forgot or did not understand that love would be lost
Or maybe you didn't love from the start
Maybe we fell apart and I was left with the crumbs
From a love you chewed up and spit out your gums, its all fucked
Everything unchained is in shambles
I took a gamble and won the bet and my prize is handle
The kind you grip while slippin' over a sinking ship
In the vast Pacific with no lifeboat to get in
This is the last song I will ever write you
I was told the worst thing a woman could do is lie to
A man, as he extends his heart with his hands
Maybe that's why there's blood all over the window I grasp
Damn,
I guess I'll just keep
