i heard today a friend died
and my heart fell from my chest
i thought that i could be strong
i thought time would be my test
but his woman comes to me
and she breaks my heart in two
i cant tell her what im feeling
and i dont think i ever could
i tell her what i think would get me through
and i doubt thats its enough
the devastation that she feels makes me impotent.
so i sit here with my booze and will her to be well
the tears they fall... and im not quite sure if
they are for her... for him... or me.
i want her to be strong cause
it is something i find so difficult to be.
all the trite words that fall from my lips are just that
and i know she wishes she was dead
in times like these we just dont know
how it is we're suppose to react
are we suppose to fold?
suppose to be a rock?
or be ourselves for those who've lost?
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    I think crying is usually helpful. Maybe hiding out for a few days if you can. :(
