The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart

you were a friend or maybe a twin
i never really could decide
you came to my door, i was on the floor
i couldn?t let you up inside

i didn?t mean to let you down
and now i know everything that?s good is gone

i couldn?t explain when i said you?re a pain
i never knew another way
all the times that we saw falling down every hall
the better parts have been erased

i tried to make it happen
i tried to do things right
i swallowed two and thought of you
but never saw your sight

i slept away the summer
i dreamt away the days
but the nightmares came when i woke up
and knew you were away
