Bright Eyes - It's Cool, We Can Still Be Friends

Apologies in advance for the shitty quality of the image but I couldn't find any better and bigger size. I noticed that the internet lacked of a decent version of this song and I decided to upload it, so you all could be sad and misserable. Don't thank me. Needless to say, I do not own any rights of this, I'm just promoting music.

[Julia-qutt]

I have such vivid memories of being 16 and piss drunk on my parent's whiskey, sobbing and screaming this song alone in my bedroom.

[palmertomlinson]

We’re all here for the same thing.

I love you stranger.

[hensis]

after 10 years its time to listen to this one again

[jayleencrier]

Went from "First day of my life" to "It's cool we can still be It's for the best

[LilyBrownlivingforEGG]

When the hard seltzer starts tasting like this song I know it’s time to go to bed

[emilydeibert]

Oh my goodness.. Listening to this 20 (ish) years later and it still hits the same. So grateful for this band my whole life.

[brycekopp]

I mean this in the most positive way possible, but I’d be so happy if I never had to come back to this song ever again.

[zngzong]

I feel so young reading these comments, everyone has such vivid memories of this song and im hearing it for the first time...i guess I'll come back in 20 years with memories to share :)

[cowsnot]

Love this song just hate this feeling. It's so well explained

[amber]

After 8 years, this song still burns just as much

[sonotthatcool]

Listened to this in high school after break ups, now in my 30s while getting divorced. 😔

[coolbeans]

Long day today. This song came into my head. Came here, Read the Comments, and now don't feel so alone. Haven't spoken to anyone here or anything just knowing im not the only human hurting helps

[samuelsoteloavila]

This made me go from Bright Eyes to Teary Eyes to Sobbing Eyes

[julietasuarez]

Asked for the saddest songs they could remember on my timeline. One friend sent me here, jeez, we got a winner.

[alylimez]

I have been having the most unfortunate luck with love. This song brings me comfort letting me know I am not alone.

[nvivwww]

This song physically hurts...
Still listened to it on repeat for 4 hours straight🤷‍♀️

[mjime]

The first song I ever heard from Bright Eyes. Got it from my brother. Even though I’ve never been in a relationship, I love everything about this song

[Mrstevenstrange]

I Hate how bittersweet heartache can be. Letting things go can be difficult and my perspective can be so stubborn, Why does the feeling of laying in it feels so pure and addicting? Oh to be alive and feeling!

lyrics

Yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
Yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
Yeah, you still kiss me sometimes, but it's just on the cheek
You pull away so easily

And I still call you, but I get your machine
And I still call you, but I get your machine
And if I'm lucky I guess, I get your roommate answering
But you're at the bar, or at Gene's

And we go to dinner, but you won't hold my hand
We sit at the same table, but we don't play with our feet
Yeah, we still go to dinner sometimes, but we don't sneak a kiss
When the waitress turns around

And we still watch movies, but we don't share the couch
And we still rent movies, but we don't share the couch
Yeah, we still watch movies sometimes, but you don't lay in my lap
The plot is slow, take a nap

And you even stay over, but now we stay in our clothes
Yeah, you'll even sleep over, but now we stay in our clothes
Yeah, you even sleep over sometimes, but we stay in our clothes
I'm only there so that you're not alone

And you say that I hurt you, in a voice like a prayer
Yeah, you say that I've hurt you, and your voice is like a prayer
Yeah, well maybe I hurt you sometimes, but let's contrast and compare
Lift up your shirt, the wound isn't there

I guess that your truth, is just the ghost of your lies
I guess your kind of truth, is just the ghost of your lies
Yeah, your kind of truth, darling, is just the ghost of your lies
I see through them all the time
So I'm pouring some whiskey, I'm gonna get drunk
Yeah, I'm pouring myself some whiskey, I'm going to get really fucking drunk
I'm pouring some whiskey right now, I'm going to get so, so drunk
That I pass out, forget your face, by the time I wake up

In an effort to find Cassadaga many, many years ago, I accidentally downloaded this track via Limewire. I was so confused, as I was new to this artist and genre, and thought it was this extremely special, raw, real piece of music I'd found. To this day, I believe it to be so. I could never find it again for the longest time, but I always remembered it. Thank you for uploading this, as it keeps existing in this strange sort of limbo of music mind as I remember my youth.
