My friend you were the model A priceless work of art Boys would fashion their emotions To the pattern of your heart And I heard you wrote that record For a girl you loved but died Im here sewing mine together Just hoping youre alive And I know youll never come back now To the world where people are Because you never understood What they loved you for Now ghosts, they have their secrets And theyll tell them to a few So you could never pay attention When theyre whispering to you There were many talents you possessed That I wished myself to have But the way your eyes would gloss over Well, I never envied that And I doubt youll ever come back now From wherever it is you are Because you never understood What we loved you for Im sure the TV sets will tell us When someone reinvents the wheel Until then Ill have a million conversations About shit that isnt real But Ive tried to breathe in meaning Dig deep to every gasp of air Because I know you did the same thing For as long as you could bear I guess everything just circles around To where it was before So I hope I see you soon In some other form
loved, understood, reinvents, never, envied
