I watched you pull the chain on your belt while you lied to me I listened to you tell your friends about when you were seventeen You reminded me of your father, a coward and a shame I wanted to hold you but I knew I should restrain
I tried to fill the silences by forgetting about the past And as we got high I tried to make you laugh I hope you felt some sort of fire in your chest I wonder if you felt anything when I left
But it doesn't matter It doesn't matter if you don't care I'll still love you with everything I've got It don't matter, it don't matter if you don't love me 'Cause you the first to ever try
Otto, I miss you Otto, I miss you Otto, do you ever think of me? Otto, you're always on my mind
I was going to tell you on the way to the airport No matter how much my teeth or tongue hurt No matter how my throat burned or my gums bled But my jaw locked and I stayed silent
And on the plane ride home I ate myself alive In front of the strangers sleeping next to me, I cried I read your letter again when I got home I put it in a drawer, and drowned myself in the bathtub
But it doesn't matter It doesn't matter if you don't care I'll find people like you and love you through them It don't matter, it don't matter if you don't think of me anymore I'll kiss my Lori's lips through someone who reminds me of you
Otto, I miss you Otto, I miss you Otto, do you ever think of me? Otto, I miss you And Otto, I love you My Otto, I love you, still Otto, I miss you Otto, I miss you
