My friend suffered a huge loss. He's a great guy. This song is based on how I might feel if I were in his shoes.

lyrics

Hasn't been so long, would it be so wrong if I sat here and complained? Here one day, gone so fast, had so much more to say. Never lied, never cheat, never had a doubt. Where were you when I watched the lights go out? Betrayal. Epic fail. Thought you were standing right beside me.

Took a beating so violent there's a ringing in my ears. Invisible intruder who is stealing all the years. Goes to show that you never can tell.

Turns out you've got a mean streak. You cut me down. When praying for an answer am I talking to myself? Just a penny at the bottom of a wishing well.

I'm gonna close the blinds and stay inside again September 8, and just my luck the sun will never come up again on the 12th of May. Did everything I could until I'd had enough. Tired of holding both ends of a deal up. You left me. Empty. No reason to resent me.
