[Verse 1]
That year I lost a lot of friends
They span away, not to return
It was for the best
The party stalls, the embrace ends
You don't pick up when I come to your town
Am I best left in the past?
So I make a space for things to flow
I trim my leaves in search of growth
I’m okay with it
[Chorus]
There I go, making a show
Of myself again
I'm still wedded to the idea that you
Are still there again
Somewhere underneath
[Post-Chorus]
You were a good man
You were the best
[Verse 2]
The pills don't cure, they keep at bay
Instead of black, my days are grey
(You were a good man)
So I put my faith in what’s to come
For it's the thing you would have done
(You were the best)
If I couldn't have it all, I wanted nothing
If I couldn't have the depths of you
[Chorus]
There I go, making a show
Of myself again
I'm still wedded to the idea that you
Are still there again
Somewhere underneath
[Post-Chorus]
You were a good man
You were the best
[Bridge]
Now you're less than a memory
You're an echo now, faint facsimile
You said hope is something you give yourself
But it's not the same
I don’t know how to get over you
[Outro]
Of things yet to come
Of things yet to come
Of things yet to come

I guess it’s the most tender of the songs on the record. We were conscious that we wanted Alpha Games to have no lags and for all the energy to be up, but I feel like this is the one song when the energy isn’t up. It’s important because although there isn’t such palpable aggression in it, there is a...
