about

Featuring Dylan Roth on Piano

lyrics

I’m on a twelve-person grouptext and I can’t tell
If anybody on this thread likes each other that well
Because we haven’t all hung out for a couple of years
And if I remember right that night ended in tears
Now we’re trying to plan a party and it ain’t looking great
Because we’re full of resentment and we can’t find a date
But if you show up I’ll be happy you did
You know deep down inside I’m really still just that kid
Who loves his friends.

I love my friends.

I got my stars read by a lady in black
She said that thing you think you had ain’t ever coming back
And the more you try to force it, the further it goes
Then she took my thirty dollars and she laughed at my clothes
And I wept then but the stars didn’t care so
Since then I’ve been sticking to tarot
Where I shuffle the faces and deal again
You know I don’t like the future but I love my friends.

I love my friends.
