New Indie 2023

This trauma in my head
It's my fault for thinking this
These pressures I can't cope with
I'll say that I'm fine

Its critical I talk to you
I can't sleep at night
Without you here with me
This crippling pain I have

As we've been here before
As we've been here before
As we've been here before
As we've been here before

As we've been here before
As we've been here before
As we've been here before
As we've been here before

Lyrics:
You were the one that never made me feel alone
I never thought we were best friends just to get stoned 
Everything was fine until you started drinking
I would lose my mind wondering what you were thinking

Six drinks on a Tuesday you missed my call
I could feel your anger through the walls
Six drinks on a Tuesday you missed my call
I could feel your anger through the walls 

After all this time 
You surfaced in my mind
You crossed a million lines
You were my friend when you were high

We stopped getting together every night
I don’t know why you couldn’t let me in inside
You said your lungs felt better but what about my pride
I was a thing to poke and prod as you liked

Six drinks on a Tuesday you lost us all
I could feel your anger through the walls
Eight drinks on a Friday you’re running from life
I’m watching a movie staying inside

After all this time 
You surfaced in my mind
You crossed a million lines
You were my friend when you were high

Maybe we were both running, putting up walls
The embers going out and I’m alone
Maybe we were both running, putting up walls
The embers going out and I’m alone

Sorry but I can’t forgive (can’t forgive)
You never faced what you did (what you did)
Sorry but I can’t forgive (can’t forgive)
You never faced what you did (what you did)
