lyrics

The layers of a clover green shadow
Represents the rarity of friends
I feel I’m alien when I go out and acquaint
They pull the hue-changing spirit out of me

I think funny thoughts to distract from my lost friend
The funny feeling sits around and waits until it’s dead
I am growing older and I feel
Ghostly insects on my leg
How do you know time can pass so fast
And leave you empty after all the facts?
I’m solitary now but when there’s more
People, I feel all alone

There’s one more month until my birthday
It’s great how my life is a joke
All I see through my eyes is a severed road
How could you be so deeply soap?

You quit trying secretly to block me from your circle
The truth is that it’s both our faults but you’re the one who broke
You planned everything with my friends without me
I’m just the way I am but you’re the one who hurt me most

I never realized how much I always think of you
Many things around my life
Were built upon us two best friends
I don’t know how

The highest layer of the green shadow
Overtaken by a deeper dark
Do you have no sympathy for the parasites?
Take a look, you’ll see me on the ground
