In a way, this is a derivative of Promise Me You’ll Go, but that was not the initial intent.
My dear friend
I’d be lying if I said I know
You know it to be true, so
Let’s move on from here
Let’s move on from here
Hearts break
And we’re just scared
There’s more at stake
Never know if we’re unprepared
I’ve lived twice as long
Than friends who lived more alive
They’re the ones in song
Up here, I just survive
My dear friend
You’re holding on to what you know
You know it to be true, so
I’m so proud of you
And you should be, too
Move, dear friend
Go whichever way you choose
True North is yours to own
Promise me you’ll go
Promise me you’ll go
I’ve lived with
Vicariously numb fingertips
I have sat
In surrogate silence
This life is mine to save
Leaving cut roses on your grave
This was really moving!
