The pains you'll take
The rules you'll break
Just to keep from feeling older
An acute sense that it's over
Still won't cover your student loans
Your credit cards
Brought you far
Or was it only deeper?
You tried sleeping with your best friend
Now your best friend's with someone else
Had I known someone like you
Had I half the charm you do
I'd have done the same thing, too
An attitude
Sad as untrue
The endless solitude of summer
With ever letter to each other
We write every wrong we've ever known
A set of stares
A godless prayer
And the space that lies between you
And though there is no smoke to see through
I still wonder who you are
Had I known someone like you
Had I half the charm you do
I'd have done the same thing, too
