Lyrics
Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Down, I open up to you
What a beautiful mistake that was
Laugh me down, tell your friends
Let me down
Friend?
An abdominal pain that burns
The feeling of all alone in this world
Laugh at me, not with me
What a beautiful mistake, our friendship
I'm only there when you want me there
You let me turn back
Your knives are sharpened
Taking easy aim
How easy is it to be as cool as you all?
Is it down to the clothes you wear or the music you hate?
Strangle me with open arms
Crushing me and hiding me away
Close my eyes to say goodnight
I'm never going back here
Your fake smiles and weak goodbyes
Will last the rest of our lives, all for the rest of your lives
Friend?
A fake another smile to get me over you
I'm better than you but only I can see that
Drink a drink to me, a fallen friend/a fallen foe
Strangle me with open arms
