buried alive inside my dreams

The thing that kills me about “and in the end, I’d do it all again / I think you’re my best friend” is the “I think.” We’ve all seen the Pete Wentz interview where he talks about his therapist pointing out his equivocation, and I’m sure that’s part of it, but I love the implications.
