Haven't been this sad in a while
And its funny cause
Things are going great Im alive
And my dog is almost
Thirteen years of age
Thats the number you have
Tattooed on your arm
Cause its cool
And its also your birthday
You've been gone for several years
And at first I was a mess
But i taught myself to walk
And I kept on getting dressed
thats the second time I've lost
In a game of keeping friends
And I guess I'm missing you
Guess the wound will never mend

You were weirder than they come
And you never seemed to cry
Though id seen it happen once
Or maybe even twice
Ive forgotten how it felt
To be comfortable in silence
When you'd fall asleep at noon
Cause you'd gotten way to high
And the movie would just play
And the sun would say goodnight
And If ever I was sad
You would tell me its alright
cause the world is full of shit
But theres people that are kind
Now I wont say that you're wrong
But you left me far behind

Theres a-lot that id forget
Like the sound of your guitar
And a skateboard in my driveway
That you picked up from a bar
I remember writing songs
In the backroom of my dads
Never finished even one
But goddamn if we had
Funny how it took this long
To attempt a song for you
Think I never had the words
And I Still don't think I do
Maybe now that I am older
And I've had a drink or two
Cause I'm feeling pretty sad
So honey heres to you
