(Kevin Gilbert)
Danny my friend
I think you knew me better than I ever knew you
‘Cause you read every chapter
And I just glossed right over them
and pretended I knew
But I believed in you
I loved you for your brilliance and your way of making everything absurd
And I relied on you
To make me see the foolishness of paragraphs that were better as one word
What could I have told you to make you think again
We draw the same conclusions but we choose a different end
‘Cause when you tear it down it only looks more ragged
And when you build it up it only looks more fake
So why not let it be at least until tomorrow
And then you just might see your sad mistake
‘Cause life had more to give than what you’d take
Danny my friend
Forgive me if I break our rule but I think it's overdue
I really cared about you
And I didn't think that I could love a friend as much as I loved you
And we were always friends
We were Captain Jim and Billy the Super-human Crime-avenging Twins
Oh, I'm gonna miss you
And I truly am alone now ‘cause there's no one to congratulate my sins
I wish I could have been for you a more consistent friend
The chapters that I skipped I'm gonna have to read again
But when I tear it down it only looks more ragged
And when I build it up it only looks more fake
But I can't let it be ‘cause part of me died with you
And there's lots of pages missing from my book
‘Cause you had more to give than what I took
