lyrics

You knocked the wind right out of me.
Wipe the dust off of the memories.
Grocery store & it’s you again.
Checkout line. Can we be friends?

Building blocks - they protected me.
Covered holes, splitting at the seams.
Grocery store when I’m on the mend.
Silly words. “Hey, can we be friends?”
Can we be friends…

No, we can’t. Do you remember trying?
Don’t do that. I still can feel you lying.
Lying lying next to me.
Lying lying lying.

I’ve spent my days cleaning up the mess
Made by kids who thought that they knew best.
But here we are today and my walls are falling.
You’re calling out my name & my heart, it starts to bend.
Oh, can we be friends?
Can we start again?

Oh no, we can’t. Do you remember trying?
Don’t do that. I still can feel you lying.
Lying
Oh no, we can’t. Do you remember trying?
Oh don’t do that. I still can feel you lying.
Lying lying next to me. Lying Lying

Next to me. Feel the heat.
I said “Find the key under the front doormat”
I remember it so well.
Waited all night for your phone call.
Waking up. Knowing my mistake.
Seeing you. Seeing her.
I made all the wrong moves and you still say
We can be something. Oh we can be something…

No, we can’t. Don’t do that.

No, we can’t. Do you remember trying?
Don’t do that. I still can feel you lying.
Lying lying.
You hold out your hand. I see you smiling.
Do you understand why I’m even crying?
No, you can’t. Do you remember trying?
Trying, Lying

Next to me
Here in aisle 3
You say that you’re well, that you’d like to
Clear the air. Tie up loose ends
And would it be OK if we were friends?
