How do you say goodbye
To an old friend
You don't want to know
How do you wave goodbye
To a new friend
When you don't want to leave
Craving times ahead
Keeps me hungry every day
With this bitter rush
I can slowly drift ahead
To deal in life instead
Keeps me hung by your sole hand
With a single wish
I can slowly drift ahead
Why do we trade fine lines
For a real truth
We don't want to know
Why did we break our ties
With our old friends
When they don't want to grow
Would you dare
Would you dare fall flat on your face
Get your answer approved
By the state
By the state of friends of that you knew
A friend who went through
