This was written about the girl who gave me the courage to tell this other girl (and who is a recurring theme in my music from this point forward) I loved her, and who did a very bad job trying to get me over her. I wrote this because I thought she was flirting with me. It turns out she treats all of her friends like best friends. Who would have known?
lyrics
I thank you dearly
for all of your good intentions
and getting me through a tough time in my life
a wish could not come close
to my thanks towards you
but my eyes are floating somewhere different now
call me crazy, call me indecisive
but I believe I'm just growing up
not depressed or quite lonely, but too afraid
of fucking anything up
but it seems I already have
as I set my sights on someone new
could that someone be you?
as I await, with bleeding hands, sweet loving depression
heal me or hurt me, stay or desert me
I don't fucking mind
if you lead a pack towards true perfection
I won't mind staying behind
just know that I think there's more than a friendship
one-sided from either end
maybe this time, it's not me this time
but I trusted you to vent for a friend
