Cheap Excuses

about

A song about a friend. R.I.P. Zach.

lyrics

A part of me died too that day
Guess you just couldn’t find a way
To make it through the shit
that was beating you down

So many turned their backs on you
I hate to admit I’m guilty too
It’s just so fucking hard
to watch somebody die


Haunted by memories
the things we did, the songs we’d sing
dreams we had that we never realized

But did it all mean as much to you?
I’ll never know what you went through
If I had been there would it have
changed a goddamned thing?


Friendship tossed aside
petty fights and damaged pride
left you there to face it all on your own

The first to go but not the last
All victims of circumstance
Suburban boredom, a needle and authority


Where would I be today
If I hadn’t walked away
Another casualty of that broken town?

Cheap excuses ease my brain
still the regret remains
I’m so sorry, I know that I should have stayed


Did you think about me on your final day
If you had called, would I have even had a clue of what to say
You needed a friend, I wasn’t there to show you I still cared
Instead you died there in that cell, cold, alone and scared


A part of me died too that day
Guess you just couldn’t find a way
To make it through the shit
that had beaten you down

So many turned their backs on you
I hate to admit I’m guilty too
It just too fucking hard
to watch somebody die
