Friend Seeking Friend

from If I'm Not Yet by Dreamspook

lyrics

I am not old yet, but older still
and makin’ friends is a fight uphill
what replaces shared history
at this age is just a script that’s getting boring to read
every few weeks going out for drinks
Is this as close as we’re ever gonna be?

my best friend getting back from the road
asks me “what’s new?”, man, fuck if I know
don’t make me catch you up
just wanna hang out with you
since when did we need something to say or do?
since when was friendship nothing but a dry review
of separate lives tenuously tied?
well if you wanna know, it’s become a lonely and slow grind

I am not old yet, but old enough
old enough to question what it is that I’ve got
whatever I expected, whatever I’d planned
didn’t think I’d feel as lonely, as lonely as I am
for everyone who my love gave power to shape me
there’s little there to speak of intimacy
maybe it’s the midwest, yeah maybe it’s me
maybe no one’s got the time but to work and to drink

I’m not old yet, but I’m too old
To have no one to make this home
