I met you in July when he was still by our side
He meant the world to you
Everyone could see
I said, “What’s that in your drink?”
You said, “Nothing,” and I still think
That nothing’s all you’re getting out of me
But I don’t think you mind
I don’t think you mind
It gets easier all the time
You act like you don’t care
You act like you don’t care
You still bring him everywhere
You lost your only friend
Well, your only real friend
I knew that I could never fill that void
And by his own two hands
And letters washed up on the sand
Your whole foundation, devastated and destroyed
And I can feel you still hurt
Yeah, I can feel you still hurt
You’re laying with him in the dirt
Do you find it comforting?
Do you find it comforting?
It hits me every time I sing
And I wanna believe it’s true
That there’s more soul in the soles of my shoes
Than in any word he ever wrote to you that winter
Katy, please don’t cry
You know I’ll tell you any lie you wanna hear
It’s been a long year
Now we go to different schools
You think mine is way uncool
I’ll always think he probably would’ve come here
And I’d call you every day
If I only knew what to say
But I’m too afraid to face my darkest fears
And I’m sorry for all I’ve done
And all I haven’t done
I wish that I could do more
But I recognize I can’t
I recognize I can’t
Nothing grows no matter what I plant
It doesn’t hurt me
Half as much as I know it hurts you
