lyrics
there's throw up in the trashcan
now the hotel room smells like shit
i bet it was my sister
she could never hold her liquor
dark streets and words we don't understand
you looked at me and said i don't know where i am
and that's when we both knew that it would take knife to cut this apart
it would have to go through my heart
cause i wanna be your best friend
i wanna waste away next to you and get drunk all afternoon
i'll be your best friend
i'll be your best friend
your best friend, your best friend
it's my red wine
it's never having a valentine
it's a ghost screaming irony right before your eyes
it's my selfish thoughts that you feel just the same
it's your nasty remarks and the way you always say my name
late nights spent trying to figure out how we can make this work
yeah we want it all
we want to want something new and improved
we won't settle for this much longer
it's never getting better
that's why i'll be your best friend
i wanna waste away next to you and get high all afternoon
i'll be your best friend
i'll be your best friend
your best friend, your best friend
i just want a best friend
someone i can tell all my secrets to
i know, i know you got them too
i know, i know you got them too
i know, i know you got them too
i know, i know you got them too
we were seeing traces
we couldn't feel our faces
passed out in a taxi cab
then kicked on the pavement
do you remember when we first met?
a craigslist ad that led to your basement
how many open mics will it take until we get something?
this house is falling apart but it's more like a work of art
and maybe one day we'll move out into a big house
with an indoor pool, make our own rules
have statues in the living room
with a big tv so we all can see our faces on mtv
but it still won't beat or be as sweet as the times we spent on colfax street
now the hotel room smells like shit
i bet it was my sister
she could never hold her liquor
dark streets and words we don't understand
you looked at me and said i don't know where i am
and that's when we both knew that it would take knife to cut this apart
it would have to go through my heart
cause i wanna be your best friend
i wanna waste away next to you and get drunk all afternoon
i'll be your best friend
i'll be your best friend
your best friend, your best friend
it's my red wine
it's never having a valentine
it's a ghost screaming irony right before your eyes
it's my selfish thoughts that you feel just the same
it's your nasty remarks and the way you always say my name
late nights spent trying to figure out how we can make this work
yeah we want it all
we want to want something new and improved
we won't settle for this much longer
it's never getting better
that's why i'll be your best friend
i wanna waste away next to you and get high all afternoon
i'll be your best friend
i'll be your best friend
your best friend, your best friend
i just want a best friend
someone i can tell all my secrets to
i know, i know you got them too
i know, i know you got them too
i know, i know you got them too
i know, i know you got them too
we were seeing traces
