I wish I had known you better, but you were someone else's friend Is it vain for me to start crying, and then soundly find myself asleep in bed? Stick your hand from the grave Shake mine firmly to cure my shame I've learned to feast on what wasn't mine Were hollowed/hallowed, was your conscience right? I wish you were more than a passing thought, I'd put your picture on the mantle Side by side with my two late dogs, and a cousin I barely knew when he was alive Stick your hand from the grave Shake mine firmly to cure my shame I've learned to feast on what wasn't mine Were hollowed/hallowed, was your conscience right? Saw what happened from the paper, it was on page five I wish I hadn't eaten breakfast, but I did, with your name sitting close beside Stick your hand from the grave Shake mine firmly to cure my shame I've learned to feast on what wasn't mine Were hollowed/hallowed, was your conscience right? How sweet, how beautiful How far, how untouched How pure, how perfect Your name, what's your... Stick your hand from the grave Shake mine firmly to cure my shame I've learned to feast on what wasn't mine Were hollowed/hallowed, was your conscience right? I wish I had known you better, but you were someone else's friend
