The Friend Part Two by Madame Nova Lyrics

You stay awake
so late at night,
Laying and thinking
in the darkness.
You reflect upon
the day's events,
What you should have done
and what you regret.

But sometimes you recall
moments of pure happiness,
Mingled with all-too familiar
awkwardness and confusion.
Sudden free-for-all seating privileges
trigger thorns of anxiety,
Thinking "should I try to get a friend
or just sit alone and avoid turmoil?"

The constant question
is answered slowly,
When you get up and sit down
over and over in reluctance.
Complicated friendships and
general anxiety,
All of those poisoning
your rhyme and reason.
More than once, your friend
has come,
Replacing the empty seats
of the trendy girls who fled quickly.
He smiles and
you smile,
But he seems capable of
keeping a straight face.

You work as a pair
and express your feelings,
Whether on the book you're reading
or the current assignment.
You curb your speech
and laugh as friends,
But you can't seem to
stop smiling.
