about

lyrics

I opened my mail just to check if there´s something new
I called a friend just to ask if he stills alive
I saw me in the mirror just to see if I was the same

No, everything changed
since you died
but we still doing the same things
going to the same places
going to the same partys
pretending you´re here
we don´t talk about that
but now I have to say this
for me
that
you died, you died, you died

And this guitar lines that you teached me
and I still can´t play it right
at least not as you
but this is what remains
me alive playing this lines
and this´s how they´re right now

Yesterday I took the phone thinking that I could call you
And then I cried
then I stopped to cry
you know, I don´t want to make a big drama out of that
it´s normal
as daniel johnston said: billions and billions of people had already died, it happens everyday
you live and you die

you live you die

my hands starts to play the chords faster
and I realise they´re same chords of heroin
and I remember we playing this together
"Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
When I put a spike into my vein
And I feel just like Jesus' son
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know

Although we never took heroin
we thought we could be Lou Reed and John Cale

I remember some of the songs we made
there was one about not going to the school again

I never never
never will wake up again
I never never
never will wake up again

All our past, all our memories are changing their meaning now
before they were just jokes
now they are dramatic
everything has this weight of you being dead

even this guitar lines...

Everything changed but I say that everything stills the same
