You know,

and I know,

but we don't

say a word.

Cause we're cowards.



And your friends all really like me

and tell me that I'm good for you,

and I think it's true.

And my friends think I'm crazy,

and tell me not to hold by breath.

I think I'm depressed.



Cause you know,

and I know,

but we don't

say a word.

Cause we're cowards.



And my mother always calls me

to ask me how you are and to say hello.

She says hello.

And your mom sent out Christmas cards

with everybody's picture, including mine,

and it made me cry.



You know,

and I know,

but we don't

say a word.

We don't say a word

Cause we're cowards.



And cowards walk away,

When they'd really rather stay,

forever
