about

Two adolescent friends grow apart and reconnect at a party decades later. This is a poetic account of what happened.

lyrics

I’m the smartest guy I know, he said
Proud and doped, his eyes all red
And no one tells me what to do
I move with my moods
I choose
I booze
I score
I screw
And if I lose
I take the bruise.
No one tells me what to do
I’m the king of my universe
The boss of my truth
And I love you like a brother, he said
Staring intently
A tuque on his head
I love you man,
Because I’ve known you since we were ten
Before all the shit happened
And we became men
I love you man
Because we shared so much
And 20 years of bullshit since we lost touch
Is a blink in the eye
Of one spacey guy
Because quite frankly, he said
You’re a fuckin space cadet
To turn your back and forget
With no signs of regret
Treating me like less than a silhouette
I bet
The skin on my neck
That you will never get
How much it hurt me
When you ignored me
And left
Wearing that invisible coronet
High on opportunities
As a university-bound
Cassette
To record and repeat
What those cushy professors
Will have you believe
I don’t need anyone to teach me how to make sense of this world
Blue pearl
In pocket
Of Earl of Greed
I live it
I breathe it
I see it
I feel it
You don’t even know one tenth of the shit
I’ve been through
In this quick and passing life
Dealing with illness
And violence
And things not right
But none of that shit matters
Because here and now
It’s you and I
Face to face
With an opportunity to make peace and embrace
And I just wanted to get that shit off my chest
To make the best
Of what is left
In this crazy test
Of love and will
And total mental unrest
So listen here my good old friend
Much time has passed
And it’s time to mend
That stuff between us
That made no sense
Hold me tight, he said
While loud music blared at night
I love you my brother
I’ll always love you
