You didn't know me when we were kids
In trouble at school, alone at lunch again
I didn't know you when I broke my knee
Spent the summer on crutches and everybody teased
Except for this one friend, I almost forgot
You didn't know me but, he knew me best
The weight of my brain
The fear of my cold head
You never saw me endure in the ice
My friend tried to melt me but, he couldn't thaw me out right
So I got ditched, freezing alone with my thoughts
And I once said I was better off being dead
Without my old friend
But, I didn't know you yet
You didn't know me but, you got cold too
And your mind was heavy and you thought you might lose it
Well everything fucked up we both felt before
I'm glad for it all though if it got us where we are
With you in the boat here
I almost forgot how I once said I was better off being dead
But, I didn't know you yet
And you might've said you were better off just being dead
But I'm looking out for you, my friend
I didn't know you when you were a kid
But, swimming with you, it sure feels like I did
