[Verse 1]
Flew to the edge of the state
Missouri kids chainsmoking cigarettes
I can't remember their names
Felt like the best friends I'd ever get

[Pre-Chorus]
And you were like an artery
The only thing linking me to them
Truly I didn't belong
But I saw for a while
The life that left you behind

[Chorus]
The world can just transform
A service, a concert, a record store
And I am a blind spectator
The world that you knеw
Thrown on the floor

[Post-Chorus]
So what should I say
That you're finally at peacе now?
With your dead body wrapped in my t-shirt?

[Verse 2]
I wish I had talked to you more
The only night that we ever met
I didn't consider before
It might be the last chance I'd ever get

[Pre-Chorus]
You were like a light at dawn
The only thing pushing me along
I don't know how you knew my songs
But I was so far from home
My heart barely hanging on

[Chorus]
Perspective can change things
A stranger, an idol, an effigy
In lyrics, in concepts, in memory
There's something that's way bigger than me

[Post-Chorus]
Now with every word
That can barely leave my throat
In every chord I strum
You'll always be there

[Verse 3]
Death is a clear view
This will be forever now
You said that I'd helped you
But I'm the one who let you down

[Outro]
I'm the one who let you down
I'm the one who let you down
I'm the one who let you down
I'm the one who let you down
