The Day the World Ended

Snowflakes were falling, like ashes from the sky

A year ago today, I didn’t say goodbye

Starting to fear now, I’ll never get the chance

Didn't go to a single stupid dance

Silly this and silly that, didn’t think it mattered anyway

Everything that I could say

The weight of words that go unsaid

The price stuff costs, you never did

I’ll remember what you said in class

Like that

Like your smiles, and what it feels like to laugh

Forgive me, I forget faces fast

But all your faces, are pasted in my head

I could never drag myself out of bed,

But for some of you though, I’d crack a smile

I thought I hated Monday

You were the best part anyway

For awhile it was easy to pretend

I guess now we know, we all had friends

Our screens are blank, I’ve got a headache

We’re all on eternal mute

I think I’ve forgotten how to smile

Our grades are all slipping, our doors are all locked

I didn't know you mattered, that much

Now I replay old videos just to hear all your voices

For all your stupid advice,

for the times you got us separated,

for all the safety drills and seating charts,

for all the times I couldn’t stand you...

I don’t know how to do this without you

So I guess I’ll just lie here and rot
