drums

i hear a new beat, here in my heart.
i'm glad for this start
a part
of life, of time, of art

nevermind.

a song, i suppose, i wrote.
it's about two friends, i suppose.
i suppose you'll get it in the end.

to all my friends. the extra verse is for certain friends in particular. they'll know when they read it. put the extra verse where the ~~ is

Friend

It's no use living
Alone in a crowd
Cause sooner or later
The cries get too loud
The cries of your heart
Calling our for someone
The cries go unheard
By all but a friend

And here I am walking
Down this line
And here I am talking
To pass the time
How long will this last
Don't get me wrong
The past is past
But it's not gone

And I'm not wrong

When I say that you know it too
When I say that it's only true
That there's a someone everybody needs
Somebody to pass the days with
Somebody to always stay with
To run with at the top of your speed

It's kind of hard to say this
Yet it's hurting inside
All these times we've spend together
All the feelings I denied
Do you remember the days
That we first met
To completely honest
I'll never forget

I wish I could go back
And make things right
Forgive me for the lies and
Forgive me for the fights
But no matter what
I'm still glad I met you
Cause I've never had a friend
A friend so true

And you know it too

When I say that it's only right
When I say there's no delight
Like finding someone who understands
And I'm really glad I ran into you
I'm really glad to have gone through
A friendship that all storms withstands

And so now, today,
My brother, my friend
I'd just like to say
I hope this'll never end
All our times together
May they never fade
And this trust that lies between us
May it never be swayed

~~The future's but a dream
And history is past
The present is a gift, they say
Going by too fast
And so I'll say this now
Before the time is over
And so I make a vow
To be brothers 'til the end

And you know, my friend

When I say that you know it too
When I say that it's only true
That there's a someone everybody needs
Somebody to pass the days with
Somebody to always stay with
To run with at the top of your speed

And I still can't believe
We've come this far
I'll never forget you
'Till the fading of the stars


extra verse:
I remember the promise
We made so long ago
A promise of friendship
But did you know
Such promises are worthless
If not made from the heart
Which is why we've been together
Almost right from the start

yeah... originally the two friends weren't friends at all... they hated each other, because of some initial misunderstanding or whatever i-just-hate-you-and-i-don't-care-why. but after some time, well yeah, they became the best of friends. brothers. and that's their story.

and this is mine, i suppose.

(oh and today i had my first ever sort of cup of coffee - vanilla latte shared with kylie and rashi. yayyyyyy... it was nice. very very very very nice.)
