The end

I'm five pounds down, three drawers gained
Some frequency inside of me don't feel the same
She packed it all, even took the blame
Left two Advils on the counter for the pain
I'm smoking again, burning through friends
Sleeping my way through the weekends

It's only my life, don't you worry my friend
Nothing lingers quite as long as the end

I feel her voice echo through my bed
Closer, closer, closer now to the edge
I guess I'm scared, scared of what comes next
I took the hit without knowing the side effects
She's dating again, living with friends
And I used to think I had thick skin

It's only my life, don't you worry my friend
Nothing lingers quite as long as the end

I bought a Pontiac, just to take it back
Killing time between each panic attack
I leave one light on, most evenings all through dawn
So sometimes in the morning I'll forget she's gone

I'm grieving a friend who ain't even dead
Nothing lingers quite as long as the end
