about

this is about writing something meaningful to the people you went to high school with before you never see them again

inspired by a dream about someone who used to be a friend

lyrics

i dreamt last night that i spent too long
deciding what to write in your yearbook
as a closing thought to an argument
you and i sparred along our adolescence

i just wanted you to know

i hope you have a great summer
that it's not too hot
that you don't have to work outside
that you don't have to work outside don't work outside

i dreamt last night
that I spent too long
deciding what to write in your yearbook
is sincerity lost in gel pen?
is there a combination of words to get you to trust me again?

between acronyms and signatures
there's heartbeats and there's ligatures
i hope that you find what you've been looking for
I hope that you find love

that it's not too cold
that you don't get left outside
