When You Lose Your Best Friend

The sound of your voice echoes in my mind
One look at the night sky makes me die a million times
The touch of your hands, how could I ever forget?
Don't wanna get used to the empty right side of my bed

And now that you're gone
Getting out of bed seems too hard to do
Everything feels wrong if I can't share it with you
The best part of me was you

My mom and I got in a fight
You always knew what I felt like
Always gave the best advice on how to make everything right

And I wanna call you, but I can't
I wanna hear your voice again
I wanna call you, but I can't
And that's what it's like when you lose your best friend

The smell of your skin, imprinted on your clothes
I keep them 'cause I'm just not ready to let you go
The taste of your lips, no matter who I kiss
And you'd want me to move on, but you're the only one I miss

And now that you're gone
Leaving the house feels like a chore
There's nothing I want to do anymore
If it's not you I do it for

Had a terrifying dream last night
So vivid I couldn't stop the crying
Life let you go, you said goodbye
I guess it's reality this time

And I wanna see you, but I can't
I wanna hear your voice again
I wanna see you, but I can't
And that's what it's like

I wanna call you, but I can't
I wanna touch your face again
I want the Gods to bring you back

I need you back
I need you back
I need you back
I need my best friend

I tried not to let it get to me
Why should I wake up when you're not next to me?
There's always a flashback on Snapchat
And I'm back on the bathroom floor
Counting the tiles on the ceiling
Trying to distract from this numbing feeling
I know you won't come back
I just can't figure out how to be okay with that

Ohh
Ohh
Mhh
When you lose your best friend

I called your number tonight
'Cause I couldn't get you off my mind
No one picked up, no one said hi
And that's when I realised
That I'll never see your face again
I'll soon forget the way you smelled
I'll live with empty space instead
And that's what it's like
When you lose your best friend
