you don't need my permission but i figured an invitation wouldn't hurt.
and if anyone is qualified to say so, it's you 'cause you see and know all the things you never wanted to bear witness to but you still answer the phone when i call and you still invite me to your house to watch the lakers game and you still don't ask me for the money i owe you even though you know i can finally pay it back.
and i don't understand why
i'm probably not supposed to
i ought to just be thankful that you've stuck around and i really ought to ask you to stay a little longer
'cause i'm gonna need someone who won't call me an asshole no matter how much of one i am.
