If You Were Here

If you were here you would be shaking your head and laughing
because you would've told me so by now
and you would ask if I was really surprised
Really?
because this is obviously for the best
and fish and seas and how didn't I see this coming?
but don't worry
you'll do it all again for the next charming man
and you would point
laugh
roll your eyes
tell me it sucks that it hurts
but imagine being you
so drink up
stop your whining
blah blah heartbreak
but you know you deserve better
and there are boys just lining up to get your heart broken by you
and I would finally and reluctantly laugh
and probably toss my hair
and assure you it's not the case
while knowing you meant you.

If you were here I would tell yoiu
hey listen
all joking aside
I'll put my pieces back together again
dust off the ol' ticker and try the track again
but you gotta know
that I can think of about a million drugs
I'd rather see you do
than that shit you do
and I have a hunch that if you don't find yourself a new bad habit
I'm gonna find myself trying to deliver some words to a standing room only crowd of crying freaks, family, displaced lunatics, and injured dreamers
trying to find some communal comfort in all that we found beautiful in youi
and man
it's the last fuckin' speech I wanna give
and there are gonna be times when your voice
will be just the reason we need.
