Bears In Trees - Confidant

8am I awake from a comatose but the nurses never glance
Because I was asleep on my friends sofa they were going out to class
I ascended the stairs to find you still lying in her bed
We had classes too, but we just talked fragile till noon instead
You laughed at all my jokes, not because you'd understand
But because you were my home, built on stone instead of sand
And when you went away to stay in some far distant land
I still felt you in my brain smiling holding my hand
You didn't want a boy to free you, you just needed a confidant
Someone to understand you, not just biding for their own wants
And I would do anything for you, cause on those most chaotic nights
You were my warm calming companion, like the sweetest cup of chai
We tied grass around our fingers, faux halloween night wedding
Grass would never last but we didn't care for fancy things
I wrote two songs about our lives and nights oh so fantastic
And from a Christmas cracker you got me a new ring made of plastic
I felt I lost that piece of us when my mind began to fray
When you came home, I let our house fall into disarray
My ring fell down the drain, whilst I washed my twisted face
Because I let your essence go, I've not felt clean to this day
