Dedicated to a great friend back home:

Summer in the country
Damn, it sure did suck
We?d sit on cement blocks
In the middle of nowhere
Didn?t it feel like our home though?

The dust blew in our eyes
We wore our clothes in layers
Wilting under the sun
Sucking on lemon candy
Swearing and having spitting contests

You were my very best friend
I told you I loved you
You punched me in the face
I deserved it though
How can you ever forgive me?

Empty beer bottles in the ditches
I helped you collect them
We?d smash them against the trees
And watch the shards fly
Laughing and cheering

We?d lounge in the middle of the road
Dashing out of the way last minute
As the cars came screaming around the corner
We?d laugh as our hearts raced
There was nothing else to do

All the careless days back home
God, I how I miss them
God, how I miss you
I still love you
Please don?t hurt me
