Gonna See My 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.

Do you want to hear something sick?

We are but victims of desire

I'm gonna shake this thing

I wanna shake this pain before I retire

I'm gonna see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

I'm sick of everything, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

Buona sera, won't be long before we

All walk off the wire

Well I'm gonna see my friend

I'm gonna see my friend

For what I require

Buona sera I will come in quick

Don't want my flame to get no higher

I'm gonna see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

I'm sick of everything, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

I'm gonna see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

Wanna leave it all

Wanna give it up

Wanna see it, gone once and for all

Wanna feel withdrawal

Want an overhaul

Want to be there, hard as a statue

Black as a tattoo

Never to wash away...

Gonna take me an astral plane

I'm gonna tunnel through denial

I'm gonna shake this thing

I wanna shake this pain before I retire

I'm gonna see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

I'm sick of everything, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away

I'm gonna see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend, make it go away
