Lyrics
I remember that night
I have a memory of a particular night.
you fell asleep under the truck when it got late
You fell asleep beneath a truck when it became late.
in the morning When I pulled out to look for you thank god I rolled out straight
In the morning, I searched for you, relieved that I drove straight.
Nothing was ever too much
No task seemed too challenging.
doing flips off the roof
We engaged in daring activities like somersaults off the roof.
it’s like you were cheating death left and right, but you still wanted proof
You defied danger, but still sought evidence or validation.
i was thinking about you just yesterday, how you were gonna stop by on your way
I thought about you recently; you planned to visit.
i had some things that I wanted to talk you about, I had some things that I wanted to say
I had important matters to discuss and express.
But now i stand here in your flannel shirt, your mom couldn’t bear to give it to goodwill
Now, I'm wearing your flannel shirt, which your mom couldn't part with.
It’s not even cold out but I wear it still
Despite the lack of cold weather, I wear it in remembrance.
You were always there when we hit the wall
You were consistently there for support when we faced difficulties.
now no one’s gonna break our fall
Currently, there's no one to share the burden of our challenges.
We laughed until we got drunk, we drank until we fight
We laughed until intoxication, then fought, only to laugh again.
Then we’d laugh again over my fat lip, while you were icing your eye,
Reveling in humor despite physical confrontations.
but you got behind the needle, chasing the next high
You succumbed to drug use, chasing the next high.
And then you managed to escape it, you got that job and you married your wife
Later, you managed to escape addiction, finding stability with a job and marriage.
i was thinking about you just yesterday, how you were gonna stop by on your way
I recently pondered our past plans for your visit.
i had some things that I wanted to talk to you about, I had some things that I wanted to say
I had matters to discuss and things to convey.
But now i stand here in your flannel shirt, your mom couldn’t bear to give it to goodwill
Now, I'm clad in your flannel shirt, a token of our shared history.
It’s not even cold but I wear it still
Despite the warmth, I wear it as a tribute.
You were always there when we hit the wall
You were a constant presence during our tough times.
now no one’s gonna break our fall
Currently, there's no one to share the weight of our challenges.
Break our fall, break our fall
No one to break our fall and provide support.
