lyrics

(Charlie's part)
I don't know how
I don't know why
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy
Every time I hear your name
But you never came back after that fateful day
I never felt the same
You were my best friend in the world.

(JBrawny's part)
This song is dedicated to Malafren...
R.I.P.

Malafren, I remember back when we were friends
Unfortunately, I couldn't save you from your tragic end
Why couldn't I see the signs, you were in a pit
I wish I was there for you so you wouldn't commit
Suicide, my grievance is fortified
I miss you, but now I'm left in my bed crying
Suicide wasn't the answer and it's not your only option
I wish you were with better people so you would have a healthy conscience
You didn't deserve death, not death by depression
But I know you're in a better place up there in heaven
If you're listening, hey there man, I miss you
But down here in the dirt, it's different without you
This is a song dedicated to anti-suicide
If you ever think it's an answer, then open your eyes
Cos it's not, see counseling, or talk to a friend
Cos you don't deserve that, and neither did Malafren...
