lyrics

Don't forget me, fragile friend
I've got nothing left to hide
If you speak with some conviction
I can try to read your mind

I am ignorant at best
Dammit, don't reflect my lows
I have seen your weakest moments
You'll come out to see my show

And your brain is wrecked with all the shit
You feed it just to smile
Yeah, your feet are sore but don't forget
I've been there every mile

And this empty pack of cigarettes
Commemorates our night
If you're trying to sleep next to me
I won't put up a fight

I hate fucking Fordham
But I love the way you look in it
Your eyes are full of Vyvanse
Saw your smile in a book I read, Lolita
My monisima

Don't undress me, fragile friend
I've got nothing left inside
We can dance in the bodega
With our veins all full of wine

And the pages stick together
Guess we skipped one here or there
Doesn't matter if the words are hanging
Heavy in the air

I'm not rich like all the guys you get
To stare at you in bars
But I'm here until the day
That all the blood leaks out my arms

I'm tired of writing New York songs
And acting like it's cool
On 3rd and 187th
Burned an effigy to you

I know his apartment
Cause you walked me by it once
You told me on his bedroom wall
He hung a poster up, Lolita
May never see him again

And I don't hate you for the things you did
To live some endless night
On a couch all full of Ativan
I tried to take my life

And I will not be ashamed of what I did when i was broken
My fairweather friends stopped bothering
To tell me to quit smoking, Lolita
I tried to reach you at the end
