Just be friends
All we gotta do
Just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Just be friends Just be friends Just be friends..

Yesterday was exactly when my thoughts had turned to that
It felt like I was picking pieces of shattered glass
Did we both ache just like this?
For this blood that's dripping down my wrist?
Can you just tell me what is even going on?

I couldn't rest, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't even dream
My body knew exactly what this choice would even mean
Is this really for the best?
I love you, myself not less
The right time to let you know, when will it be?

As I continue to struggle, the world decays
I reassure myself, it's the only way
Haven't seen you smile, it's really been a while
Now, it can't be stopped

Echoing, my voice hoarsely screamed
It had no sound, was it in vain?
I want to die, there's nothing for me
It's a dead-end
There's no spikes and no chains, but I'm still in pain
Whatever feelings we had left us
It's all broken, shattered memories
"There's nothing we can do, life's like that," I slowly said
Without any warning, the tears began to flow

All we gotta do
Just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Just be friends Just be friends Just be friends..

Laying awake in bed I had just then realized
To repair something like this, why should we even try?
What had died won't be reborn
It's small, broken and already torn
This love has lost it's luster and now it's in the past

I still remember that season when I first saw you smile
We had soon acted like friends, not seen in a little while
The strange things we then talked about
Made us angry, scream and shout
Is there any way we could forget about that day?

We can't move forward when together we stay
My mind is made up, I'm sorry to say
I still love you
I don't want to leave you
But I've got to tell you ...

Inside my mind, it's eternally raining
It's saying that leaving would be better for us
I'm dying over and over, while saying this
I can't stop and this pain- it still hurts
Severed and dying, our sweet bond
The red thread has been broken away
Goodbye my sweetheart, it's over- won't see you again
I won't turn back after this now, so neither should you

Even if just once, and only once
If I could have, this single wish come true
I'd be born again and again to smile alongside you

Echoing, my voice hoarsely screamed
It had no sound, was it in vain?
I want to die, there's nothing for me
It's a dead-end
There's no spikes and no chains, but I'm still in pain
Severed and dying, our sweet bond
The red thread has been broken away
Goodbye my sweetheart, it's over- won't see you again
I won't turn back after this now, so neither should you

See you again in a next life...

Other Information:
JBF was Dixie Flatline's breakout song, the one that really put this producer on the map. Despite it's happy tune, JBF is without a doubt one of the sadder Vocaloid songs. Though the song is sung by Vocaloid Megurine Luka, the song appears from the man's point of view (as illustrated by the PV). This song has spawned many a cover, including Nico Nico Choruses.
