My friend you were a model a priceless work of art Boys would fashion their emotions to the pattern of you heart And I heard you wrote that record for a girl you loved that died I'm her sewing mine together just hoping you're alive And I know you'll never come back now to the world where people are 'Cause you never understood what they loved you for Now ghosts they have their secrets and they'll tell them to a few So you can never pay attention when they're 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 you'll ever come back now from wherever it is you are 'Cause you never understood what we loved you for I'm sure the T.V. sets will tell us when someone reinvents the wheel Till then I'll have a million conversations about shit that isn't real But I'll try to breathe in meaning dig deep through every gasp of air Cause I know you did the same thing for as long as you can bear I guess everything just circles around to where it was before So I hope I'll see you soon in some other form
