Useless Friends

from Same Places by New Junk City

lyrics

I went west. There was nothing here
to quell my aching chest.
I wanted sunshine and
a thousand perfect girls.

I need medicine, a cure
for my acrimony, before
I drown in a sea of useless friends.

Everything that could go wrong,
it already happened.
Getting out took so long, I wasn’t sure it’d happen.
You called me up for one last ride,
the black in your arms,
blood in your eyes.
You were never good at being mean.
You never thought it’d be the last you’d see of me.

So, what did you see,
when you drove out by the field where they found me?
Just dirt
and your overwhelming grief

She needs medicine, a cure
for her loneliness,
before she drowns in a day that never ends.

Everything that could go wrong,
it already happened.
Falling apart took so long that it’s almost laughable.
She took a ride and climbed that rock,
the blood in her eyes,
blood in her socks.
She went to church that Sunday.
It was the only way she could ever get rid of me.
