Embroglio

I had a friend who died

For something he really loved

I had a friend who stood

For none of the above

I had a friend whose experience

Was riddled with scars

Who got drunk one night

In the trunk of louie p.'s car

I had a friend who'd love to scare you

As was his affections

And tremble you did

'cause you weren't worthy of his friendship

I had a friend, but now

He's stranded on the Mesa st. exit

And sometimes I'm jealous

'Cause I'm still at the intersection

I had a friend whose heart was too heavy to hold

Yes there's blood on the median

Like a boat without oars

Duct tape the cross on the brown colored box

Single file line on the unpaved road

They tipped their hats, respect for the dead

In Juarez, Mexico, where they buried my friend

There are no words to express

The loss I feel since you've been away

You made this typical sad song

A physical classroom

Where I learned nothing

Just flashes of your face x2

and my solution is

It's all a facade x3

And nothing really matters now

x4

He's stranded somewhere on the Mesa St. exit

And sometimes I'm jealous waiting at the intersection

His heart was too heavy to hold

Yes there's blood on the median

Like a boat without oars

I had a friend who's heart was too heavy to hold

Too heavy to hold.

And it's so heavy to hold,

Yes there's blood on median

Like a boat without oars

Like a boat, without oars

It's all a facade x3

And nothing really matters now

x4

He's stranded somewhere on the Mesa St. exit

And sometimes I'm jealous waiting at the intersection
