Disappointed Smiles (Formula for a Generic, Academy-Award Nominated [but Not Winning] Ron Howard Film)

Time ticks by / bringing us close / To another dose of
 disappointed smiles
 You say we're 'friends' / A funny little word you toss
 around / I guess it depends on what he needs from you
 Cuz if all you are / is this burnt-out star / then I'll
 take my resentment another way / Like to his face
 I'm down and out but it won't be long / till I'll be
 that guy that gets you down / cuz' I don't need this
 But you say we're friends / The kind that always call
 an hour too late / I guess it depends / baby, I
 pretend
 Y'don't have what it takes / to truly appreciate
 all the ways this union is killing you / and the result
 so far / is this mess that you are / and you'll leave
 these scars on each other's face and be replaced...
 Cuz breakneck speeds go words through the armour that
 bring us down to our knees. / Time, of course, is
 everythin' now that we're beyond sympathies /
 'Cuz one mis-step and another false statement will
 turn ya into enemies / Oh, One mis-step, another
 false statement
 he didn't know / No he didn't know / He just didn't know
 I could hear him / He didn't know / No he didn't know
 He just didn't know / I could hear him
 Hear him / Hear this / I bear this and Turn ya into
 enemies, I'd Hear this / Hear this
