They were just some people I knew Those days when I wasn't so blue We'd sing on the beach Or tear up the streets They were just some people I knew He was just a friend of mine Back when I was alive He'd show me the chords And I'd scream him the words He was just a friend of mine She was just some girl I hurt The summer she made me shake first She'd wait in her car And the ride back was far She was just some girl I hurt And it was just some song I wrote The only way I know how to tell a joke And a stampede on the floor But who's all this love for? It was just some song I wrote They were just some people I knew Those days when we went to the zoo We'd always bring snacks And travel in packs They were just some people I knew He was just a friend of mine Back when we'd walk all night My shoes fell in the harbor And I jumped in the water He was just a friend of mine She was just some girl I hurt The summer away was the worst I'd cry in the car While she'd shuffle the cards She was just some girl I hurt Where do you think you're going so fast? I'm not impressed with an apology like that I know you didn't have a choice I know you didn't have a Why are you so quiet today? I'd speak if I had something to say Besides these stories that I made up So I can feel better about the way That she looks at me And God damn it can't you see In the green of her eyes She knows I didn't try And come on boys Cut the noise The neighbors getting annoyed It's been four hours of you sobbing In that raspy little voice And I know you didn't have a choice I know you didn't have a choice But that's not much fucking consolation now
