It Was More Than Just Pneumonia

from Demo 2012 by Both Goners

lyrics

We go way back
That kid was my best friend
We lived in the same town
Right there on Baltimore
Until the lights went out
Sit at the park and smoke cigarettes
Because everybody knows
All of our best friends
Have turned into ghosts

Told everybody
About this one guy
He was special
We all loved him
Now he's an angel
He loves Jesus
Was moving to Charlotte
Before he departed
Met his mom once
She seemed lovely
We were like brothers or something
He had blue eyes
Or maybe they were green
But it doesn't matter
(Cause so did everyone)
Cause we had something


We never stayed out late at night
We never wasted days getting high
We never talked about our lives
We never even spoke a word
[We never shared any good or bad times. I barely knew the guy, but the day he died]
Adam was my best friend
[I died.]
We didn't have to be that close
Because everyone knows
All my best friends turn into
Ghosts

Even if he died
That's alright
Cause he lives inside
You and I
And everyone we know
Well, He was sicker than you think
But what kind of parents would say a thing?

I can't wait to die
So I can have best friends, too
