Demented Rumors

(album: Let's Talk About Leftovers - 2000)

Let me get this straight
My good buddy died, Tuesday, right?
But today is Saturday and I saw him last night man
No, I wasn't seeing things and I wasn't drunk
I can't believe you just laughed dude, that's fucked

Some you call your friends show no remorse in the end
They'll laugh and joke on how you went
So often they're rumors, so little seems changed
But to the loved one inside

Demented rumors and everything's changed
Demented rumors

The loss of a friend so hard to comprehend
The hurt I feel inside, I can't hide
I'm suffering the one, "Why oh why did he die?"
All of this pain because of a lie

Demented rumors and everything's changed
Demented rumors

I stayed up last night for a friend
I thought I'd never see again
Because you called her up and said he's dead
How can you speak before you think about what you're saying?
How can you say the things you say?
Your sick sense of humor will show you something

Who's gonna laugh when you're gone?
Who's gonna cry when you're gone?
Who is gonna cry?
