about
This whole journey began because of the bond between two friends. This song is about loss, and the struggles we all face with the grieving process, but it's also Marshall's thank you letter to a good friend that often went above and beyond not because he had to, but because that was who he was.
lyrics
Verse:
Damn, look
02/03/2012
That was the day I lost a big part of my world, yeah
William Christopher, was more than just a friend to me
We weren’t lovers
Nah, but I loved you like a brother, “C”
Every day I got you spinning on my mind
And those months melted away
I’m trying to take back all that wasted time
And I hear you whisper softly in my ear
“It’s gonna be fine, just stay strong, and I know you’ll persevere”
You always had the right words
Best friend I’d never deserve
But you stood by my side
And made sure I believed in my worth
Yeah, man I’ve always taken that for granted
You’re always there to somehow help me understand it
And it’s amazing in the end those things we contemplated
So young and dumb, Goddamn
That whiskey bottle got us faded
We were lucky back then
Young and so alive
Damn, I miss you, man
I hope you’re fine
Hook:
Now I’m missing you my friend
My friend
I never thought our days would end
You know I’m missing you my friend
My friend
I never thought our days would end
Verse:
But now it’s been almost six years, man
And I still see you all the time
But of course I know it isn’t logical
Because of how this shit still feels inside
Man, I should’ve been there when you needed me
Instead I pushed you away a little bit
I’m tormented mentally
We’d talk for hours at a time bout music, movies, art, and girls
Goddamn, those girls, you know they’re central to our world
We loved them all
We were the “man to beat”
It’s too bad, though
Back then they were too fucking blind to see
And now I’m looking at the heavens wishing I believed
Could use some comfort from these tears that’s rolling down my cheeks
Man, I hope that you’re at peace
And I finally realized that shit was never your fault
Please allow me to apologize
Man, now I’m Marshall Love because of you
Yeah, thank you, brother man
I know what to do
Yeah, because of you man now I know what to do
Hook:
No I’m not going back to the way things were
No, No I’m not going back,
No, No
No I’m not going back to the way things were
No I’m not going back
No I’m not going back
Outro:
Man, I just keep thinking about all the things that you would’ve been a part
Yeah, so many things that you would’ve had a hand in
So many things that you’ve already played a part of
I mean you’re the one that told my wife-to-be that I was good in bed
How the fuck you knew, man, I don’t know
But, look
You helped a virgin get a girlfriend for the first time
So, you know, most guys wouldn’t admit that shit
But, it’s you, man
You know I love you
I wish my son could’ve met you
But I’m gonna tell him all the stories about the good times we had
How good of a friend you were
Man, you were an example for me
I love you brother
Peace.
