Birds of Fae - Scars That Match

I was 14 going through the motions but struggling
You were 16 feeling the same
We spent so many nights in my room staying up too late
Drinking cheap vodka, numbing ourselves
Like it was novocaine

Now I can't help thinking back
To all the times you made me laugh
All of our pacts and
Every single stupid joke
Maybe if I could go back
I'd cherish all the time we had
8 years just went by so fast
How? I don't know
But you've made up your mind
And I've made up mine

We were just teenagers
Back to back hospital visitors
Dying for an end to the meaninglessness
But desperate to save each other
We had something everyone was jealous of
An inexplicable kind of love
But I guess it wasn't enough
I know I'll, I'll always wonder
If I hadn't met him
If you hadn't met her

You and I've been through so much
When I was down you picked me up
And we both knew when times got tough
We'd never be alone
Those nights with Mike and Rel and Anch
Every single fight we had
I thought after all of that
We'd always be close
Albums filled with photographs
Our arms covered in scars that match
And when it came to what I lacked
You helped me grow
And I just want to cling onto
All my memories of you
But I know
It's time to let go
