There’s this guy I know
He’s not doing so well
And I don’t think he’d mind

If you called just to tell
Him you love him.
I think that would help him.


He’s been down for days
And I don’t know what to do

He’s been holding his pillow like it’s you
His state’s so depressing
His room smells like crying


And I know,
He loves you more than breathing

More than being happy.
I know,
He loves you like it’s tearing him apart.


There’s a guy outside your window
With a cracked guitar

And a broken heart
But I don’t think you hear him, though
I don’t think you hear him…

And he’s been going where the wind blows
He’s taken shelter by your house
But you’re not coming out

My best friend says “Believe”

He walks by your house every night around 12

Sits a block away- a safe distance
He dwells on mixed feelings
He thinks about dying.


He talks to himself, but he’s talking to you
In his head you can hear him like this

Through the curtains and window
He bids you good night now.


My best friend says
Believe in everything that you’ve got going on
Just believe in Me!

Just believe in Me!
And “Need”, now there’s a word that you can’t comprehend
But know it lives with Me!

Know it lives.

My only friend is a guy outside your window…
