CAN WE STILL BE FRIENDS?

can we still be friends
now that i can't help you?
can we?
can we still be friends
now that i can't help you
can we? huh? huh?

moths to an electric flame,
then farewell when the batteries fade.
no, i'm not talking about you,
i'm just sitting in my backyard in the rain.
roaches scatter when i turn on the lights,
half-blinking and their out of sight.
no this is not a metaphor,
i'm just looking for a snack at midnight.

can we still be friends
now that i can't help you
can we?
can we still be friends

can we? huh? huh?

no, i haven't heard from you so much,
since i started hanging out in the shadows,
yeah it could be these crazy schedules,
alternating on and off days,
but i'll ask you straight
since it's so hard to tell the truth

can we still be friends
now that i can't fucking help you?

can we still be friends
now that i can't help you
can we?
can we still be friends
now that i can't help you
can we? huh? what do you think?

i'm on solid ground now, but from your ladder
it just looks like i don't matter, who's real?
finding out too fast. used to let it make me feel one inch tall
but now i just wanna thank you
all for giving me no choice but to believe in myself,
need a ride? sorry i don't take plastic.
ok, watch me fly, byeeeeee.

can we still be friends?
can we still be
can we still be friends?
can we still be
can we still be friends?
