Toss Up

[Verse 1]
Hand off the buck to my bud 'cause I know
That he'll play something we both enjoy
Try to lean in strain my vocal chords
Thin as the song starts to shut out my voice
Watch me pretend like I know where to aim
When I toss up my paper airplane
You've been a friend to me
Can you believe that I'm trying to do you the same

[Chorus A]
Side by side
As I stare at the floor lift my eyes
As I try to meet yours and be there
And pretend like I'm strong enough

[Verse 2]
Hand you a smoke when you're feeling alone
And I'll stand with you watching it burn
Out here existing as hard as I can
Just a phone light to shine in your world
Touch of the hand and a kiss on the head
All that's left when I can't find the words
You've been a friend to me
Can you believe that I'm trying to follow in turn

[Chorus B]
Take my hand
'Cause we're really alone in this world
I can carry you home and be there
And pretend like I'm strong enough
