After all the thousand dramatic little plays
the tedious mechanics of a thousand treadmill days
kenetic or static, connections lost and found
how can you explain finding the same piece of ground
beneath our same feet, fitted now with different souls
souls worn as thin as our skin all sullied and scarred
and trapped, safely wrapped in bulletproof glass and barred
well I finally escaped, now I see you did too
and mostly we lived, as most people do
we use to dream of gingham skies and getting out
but we were just freshman, what did we know about
the world but sneaking in bars, making out in cars
struggling to carve out a space to call ours
those dreams fell apart, got muddled or shattered
though we planned and performed but none of that mattered
it's so hard to know what really will in the end
mostly just memories and the love of a friend...
