I Used to Know You

from Lost & Found in America by Matt Byrde

about

Dedicated to the loving memory of Norris Pilon. Thanks for teaching me to tune a guitar. You were one in a million.

lyrics

People grow apart
But I know I used to know you
But I know
I talked shit in later years
And you just spoke the truth
You didn't care for lives like mine
I never seemed to find the time

March came in like a lion
And he went out like a reaper
With my friends in his hands
So pray all that you want to
I'll be here blaming Jesus
'Cause he left me behind
March came in like a lion
And he went out like a reaper
With my friends in his hands
So pray all that you want to
I'll be filling in my grave
To buy me some time

Growing up gets hard
I swear I used to know you
Say it isn't true
I swear I used to
Thick as thieves
You and me
You didn't care for lives like mine
Neither did I for a long damn time

March came in like a lion
And he went out like a reaper
With my friends in his hands
So pray all that you want to
I'll be here blaming Jesus
'Cause he left me behind
March came in like a lion
And he went out like a reaper
With my friends in his hands
So pray all that you want to
I'll be filling in my grave
To buy me some time
