Echoes of Loss: Reflections on Friendship and Longing

Lyrics

Feels like it should sting, but it only aches

Despite expecting pain, it's more of a lingering discomfort

Respite from two till ten while I contemplate

Temporary relief between specific hours while reflecting deeply

A world without you here; don't know what I'd say

Unable to articulate in a world without your presence

If one day you were gone

Imagining life without you


Irrational, I know, but it's your fault we're still friends

Blaming you irrationally for the continued friendship

I'll need you one more time and the cycle begins again

Needing you cyclically, initiating the pattern once more

So tell me how you feel, it's not a burden, it's my remedy

Asking for your emotional state to heal

So used to us I can't bear to just be me

Uncomfortable being just oneself without our connection


So leave me on read again, and I'll hear from you once a week

Being left on 'read,' sporadic communication

Got everything I know from group chats and your old tweets

Gathering information from indirect sources

And if you died I'd never know, cause I'm your last port of call

Feeling responsible as the last person to be contacted

Well I'd rather know too much than know nothing at all

Prefer knowing too much over complete ignorance


You're everything I wanted and more

You embody all I desire and more

I can't go it alone

Unable to handle things independently

She's so pristine, and I'm just one more

Comparing oneself unfavorably to someone pristine

Yeah I'm just one more

Feeling like just another insignificant person

One more guest at your funeral

Imagining being another attendee at your funeral


What would I say if tomorrow was the day?

Contemplating what to express if tomorrow brings your absence

When I'm confronted and can't wish it all to go away

Unable to evade facing the situation

(What would I say?)

Reiterating the uncertainty of words in that moment

(At your, at your, at your, at your funeral)

Reflecting on potential words at your funeral

What would I say?

Pondering what to articulate in that scenario
