I play songs that make me happy
I play songs to keep me down
I play songs to keep me laughing
Like you're here
But who'll hear me laughing out loud?
I had friends I could speak my mind to
I had friends that couldn't care
I had friends that I did wrong to
In high school
And college, boy was I even there?
We had fun, you and I did
We had fun apart from ourselves
We had fun when we were younger and tighter
Together, so why
Did we run from our wealth?
We were silly, inside and outside
We were silly simply for a laugh
We were silly to think you'd get over it
And were silly
To think it would last
You're still here and so am I, friend
You're still here only in a different town
You're still here and time is your friend
Let's end this and
Make amends while we're still around
You're afraid, how do you think I feel?
You're afraid and I'm nervous myself
You're afraid of the future
And past hurts
We can heal after we forgive ourselves
Oh yes, we can heal after we forgive ourselves
