You got what you wanted, I’m a god damn mess
They say you’re coming back, I know you won’t address
The sleeplessness, the stress,
or the birthday that you missed
Do you want the bed, I can take the floor?
I once called you a friend, gave you my home and more
but none of that matters anymore
you showed yourself my door
I only wanted the best for you, you see?
That’s so much more than you wanted for me
You just needed my friends and a place to sleep
This is the kind of company I keep
I always thought that I could be a helping hand
Now, I try to say the words, turns my mouth to sand
Even helped out with your band
And was still your biggest fan
When I think about you, I can feel the waves
Pushing up behind my eyes, but no one saves
The time for a man who digs his own grave
A man who’s never brave
I only wanted the best for you, you see?
That’s so much more than you wanted for me
You just needed my bed and a set of keys
This is the kind of company I keep
Why is this the kind of company I keep?
