I Lost a Friend

I lost a friend
Like keys in a sofa
Like a wallet in the backseat

Like ice in the summer heat
I lost a friend
Like sleep on a red eye
Like money on a bad bet
Like time worrying about every bad thing that hasn't happened yet

I know I'll be alright
But I'm not tonight
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made
Replaying fights
I know I'll be alright
But I'm not tonight

I lost a friend
I lost a friend
I lost my mind
And nobody believes me
Saying no that it don't lead me
'Cause you made a little too much money to be twenty and sad
And I'll be fine without 'em
But all I do is write about 'em
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
Never had

I'm on the mend
Like I'm wearing a neck brace
Like I'm sleeping at my own place
Like I'm pulling all the stitches out of my own face
I'm on the mend
Like I'm icing a new sprain
Like I'm walking on a new cane
Like it's been a couple days since I
Slipped and said something sorta like your name

I know I'll be alright
But I'm not tonight
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made
Replaying fights
I know I'll be alright
But I'm not tonight

I'm on the mend but
I lost a friend
I lost my mind
And nobody believes me
Saying I know that it don't lead me
'Cause you made a little too much money to be twenty and sad
And I'll be fine without 'em
But all I do is write about 'em
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?

I'd apologize if I thought it might
Make a difference or make you listen
I'd apologize if it was black and white
But life is different
Just try to listen to me now

I know I'll be alright
But I'm not tonight
I lost a friend
I lost a friend
I lost my mind

And nobody believes me
Saying no that it don't lead me
'Cause you made a little too much money to be twenty and sad
And I'll be fine without 'em
But all I do is write about 'em
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?

Never had
