Lyrics

Verse 1:

Hey you, do you remember me?
15, sitting in a graveyard talking about their history
Are you sleeping well at night?
Your eyes are closed and the window's down
But your thoughts are not in flight

Bridge 1:

Let the girl sleep off her pain
Her thoughts collide like waves
A voice is in her head
This is what is says

Chorus:

I'm your new best friend
Yeah I'm your new haircut
Yeah I'm the alcohol that burns down your neck and into your gut
And I was cold outside
And your screams are loud
And I'm trying to wrap up
I find it hard to stumble to the ground

Verse 2:

Hey you, do you remember me?
17 lying on a bed now we're making history
Did you hear the news today?
I'm leaving home with a letter torn straight from an empty case

Bridge 2:

Let the families say good bye
Such a withered night
The boy will learn to talk
Excitement won't hide

Chorus:

I'm your new best friend
Yeah I'm your new haircut
Yeah I'm the alcohol that burns down your neck and into your gut
And I was cold outside
and your screams are loud
And I'm trying to wrap up
I find it hard to stumble to the ground

Instrumental (Chorus chords)

Verse 3:

Hey you, do you still think of me?
19, sitting on a beach clutching a bottle of history
Are you still singing songs at night?
I heard that one that you wrote for me how can false words sound pretty?

Bridge 3:

Let the boys sing out their pain
Let the dreams just slip away
Let the liars howl at night
Under darkened lamp light

(Sing it with me boys)

Chorus:

I'm your new best friend
Yeah I'm your new haircut
Yeah I'm the alcohol that burns down your neck and into your gut
And I was cold outside
and your screams are loud
And I'm trying to wrap up
I find it hard to stumble to the ground
