Best Friend


I see you in the morning as you cut through the vines
You take life as it comes, and would never say you’re surprised
You’re like my left hand trying to write a message in the dark

You eyes are like headlights that shine in the night
I kiss you on the forehead; I know you take it as a sign
You’re my best friend lying right beside me in the grass

I see you in the morning as you pick your prey
You hold it in your hand until it fades away
We’re like different functions of the same impossible design

And our shadows grow bigger, the higher we fly
The questions were clearer than the answers we got
But I would never let you slide into that never-ending night

Cause you always cheer me up
When you don’t even try to cheer me up

I see you in the morning as you cut through the vines
You take life as it comes, and would never say you’re surprised
You’re like my left hand trying to find a message in the dark
