about

Unpacking some things.

lyrics

Well here we are at 3AM
we chain cigarettes, the whole pack I guess
deescalate, reestimate
the situation is getting stable

Best oughta pretend
that it's all good, we are rational
put down the gun, put down the gun
for the sake of all assembled

Just wanted a friend
I don't know how, we got to here
redact the thought, redact the thought
it's a broken flashbulb memory

We were medics both
you more than I, adrenaline high
but my trust for you
yeah, it's still in one piece

I remember when we had to get away
he was a threat
he was a threat

I still remember you falling down to the floor
duck and cover
duck and cover

In the end
I guess
Chris tried
his best

Part of me
left dead
in a driveway
in Tigard

I remember the pistol
that you used, half the size of me
it's something that sticks out
in my memory

You lowered your voice
when you got angry at me
and them
and yourself

I remember when we had to get away
he was a threat
he was a threat

I still remember you falling down to the floor
duck and cover
duck and cover

Incredibly naïve
incredibly kind
sacrifice safety
just wanted a friend

Stupidly naïve
stupidly kind
give me a bullet
just wanted a friend

In the end
I guess
Chris tried
his best

Part of me
left dead
in a driveway
in Tigard

In the end
I guess
it was worth
the trouble

In the end
you decided
I was worth
the trouble

I'm just a stupid little girl
I never had friendship modelled safely for me
Kindly towards me
I do my best to do what I can for others
I am useful
I am kind
I've been through a lot
I've worked through a lot, too
I'm sorry
