Dead Friends
Sam Sky Lyrics

Woke up like it wasn't nothin
Started the day half-asleep and nonchalant.

Sleepy eyes were so dry but not for long
Eyes were tired, but waking up helped remedy that.

That day was my birthday
Today was my birthday.

So I played my favorite songs yeah
I played my favorite music, hoping others would enjoy it too.

Thinking you would sing along
I thought you would all join in and sing along with me.

Thinking nothing could go wrong
I believed that everything would go smoothly today.

But I was wrong
Things did not go as planned, and something went wrong.

K.S. with the truth bomb said
K.S. said something honest and hurtful.

Pull over because I've got something to tell ya
Stop the car because I need to tell you something important.

Hands start shaking with anger and denial all at once
Feeling both angry and in disbelief, hands start to shake.

Not the surprise you wanted but still will leave you breathless on the floor
The news is unexpected and shocking, leaving one feeling stunned.

Yeah I miss all my dead friends
I long for all of my deceased friends.

Parties on the weekends
We used to party on the weekends together.

Staying up all night just so we'd feel the sun
We would stay up all night, enjoying each other's company.

We weren't scared of nothin
We felt invincible, as if nothing could stop us.

Bad things never happened especially to us
We thought bad things only happened to others, never to us.

Broke down like whoops there goes gravity
Suffered a breakdown or mental collapse, akin to losing control.

Tears flow and soul crushed reality
Unable to hold back tears, facing a stark and painful reality.

But F that now I never get to hear you laugh or hear you cry
I am angry about this sudden loss, and I miss all of the emotions that my deceased friends used to express.

Or argue with J.P. and everyone alive about anything
I miss the debates and discussions that we used to have, both serious and lighthearted.

You'd argue yeah about everything
One of my friends would argue about anything and everything, and I miss that.

Now every birthday of mine feels like a death day inside
Since the loss, each of my birthdays feels more like a day of mourning and sadness.

No I can't shake the splinter in my nihilist mind
Even when I try to distract myself from the loss, I cannot escape the feeling of this nihilistic worldview.

Yeah I miss all my dead friends yeah
I really, truly miss all of my deceased friends.
