Bittersweetish

Lyrics for a song I wrote during the depressing time leading up to graduation. Particularly inspired by the sailor-swearing Michael and I exchanged to cover up the knowledge that our high school days together were over. I combined truly heart felt feelings with an edge of humor to remind me that everything's not over. Its just a new chapter in life. Originally performed at the Harders' Home for an audience of four.

I will not be here

For you next year

We had our time, had our fun

Now most of it is just about done

I never thought it’d have to end

And I’d say “Bye” to all my friends

Wish that we wouldn’t part

And you could hide in my heart

So fuck you and your words

It’ll only make this worse

I will miss you

Much more than you even know

I’ll embrace these new fears

And we’ll shed some heart-felt tears

Even when bones be frail

These memories won’t be for sale

Mikey don’t look so sad

This will go, it’ll all pass

Life is pain, until we die

So share the love, then say goodbye

So fuck you and your words

It’ll only make this worse

I will miss you

Much more than you even know
