We were only fourteen
Wild, wide eyes
Pledging our virtues between holy crimes
We'd drink ourselves naked
Swallowing the shame
Stirring in the silence
Tangling our brains

I never meant
To lose
You were my best friend

I'd rip off the label
And bury down the pain
Washing my hands till the skin split the stain
Repeating the mantra in mirrors
But knowing that for no one
Had my heart beat dearer

I never meant
To lose
You were my best friend
Best friend

All of these years spent
Avoiding guilty eyes
Was I the one that muddied your mind?
Now I'm snorting cocaine
And bleeding out the truth
Oh, how I loved you

I said oh, how I loved you
Oh, how I loved you
And oh, how I still do
