may 11th

May 11th every second was a whirlwind
I stayed over at your house for the first time
Grandma's upstairs asleep in her chair
And we got a lotta time to kill

So you share a couple videos you made in school
I'm a ten year old kid so of course it's cool
You say "could we make our own movies?"

So we tried
Improvised
Messed around with the camera
Made no script or lines
Just a good time
And I found my best friend that night

We could find it all worth keeping
And maybe we don't need a reason
We could built a fort in my room just to sleep in
And maybe we don't need to know where we'll go
Ten years down the road
Looking back at all our seasons
Never did we need a reason

May the memory of everyone who helps us live
To our family and friends and the time they give
The faculty to our fantasy

And I know we'll remember every inside joke
They're all written in your notes
Just for show
Mementos of a long road

We could find it all worth keeping
And maybe we don't need a reason
We could built a fort in my room just to sleep in
And maybe we don't need to know where we'll go
Ten years down the road
Looking back at all our seasons
Never did we need a reason

Think back to the farthest moments in August
Family reunions out at the inn
Precursor to all our targets and projects
Right from the start you were my best friend
And when someone hurts me
You're the keeper of my knowledge remember the things I wanna forget
Better yet
You taught me what it's like to have a brother

We could find it all worth keeping
And maybe we don't need a reason
We could built a fort in my room just to sleep in
And maybe we don't need to know where we'll go
Ten years down the road
Looking back at all our seasons
Never did we need a reason
