1. of course you had to be first. because you are still first. the road hasn't really been rocky, just well-worn. i'm glad you're still there with me. [you've opened heaven's portal here on earth for this poor mortal]
"it's just you and me and the songs we sing as we drive on through eternity." (Drive - Dextors Conscience)
2. i have very few good friends, and even fewer great ones. but you've been a constant in my life for 5 years now, and i'm so grateful. we're not the same, but our paths have been similar. i hope you'll still be around in 5 more years.
"we could live through these letters or forget it all together." (New American Classic - Taking Back Sunday)
3. it's difficult to explain how i felt when you dropped back into my life recently. everything was so casual. so simple. it was so easy for you to kick up dust that had settled long ago. when i look at you, i can't help but wonder. i think back on that time and wonder what really held us back. and when you talk to me about how different things could've been, i get lost. i'm not ready to close that door just yet.
"stop speaking through the lines and say it bluntly, i'm tired of reading through your smiles to see the truth behind." (Friends in Love - Mia Rose)
4. i just want to tell you how sorry i am about how things ended with us. things just get so crazy in the moment, you know? and i look back and regret it. i know this probably doesn't mean anything to you, but if i could go back in time i would take back making those plans with you. so maybe, just maybe, we could still be friends.
"you hold me down, you've got me living in the past. come on and pick me up, somebody clear the wreckage from the blast." (Resolution - Jack's Mannequin)
5. i'm sorry that you feel i let you down. but the truth is, you were turning into something i didn't like, and i wasn't sure what to do about it. i can't save you, you don't want to be saved.
"now she hardly recognizes herself at all."(Hollywood's Not America - Ferras)
6. i miss you. so much. we were supposed to be kindred. i remember those plans to move in together. travel the world. find boys and settle down. do it all together. our fights, our memories, our crushes. all.. epic. my life is missing that now.
"you tore down the walls that the world had put inside my head." (Never Knew - Rocket Summer)
