Old Man Mike - Be Your Friend Lyrics

I didn't need to know
What you're going to do
I could stay around
Like I always do
I could be your friend
If you say alright
I could be your friend
Almost everytime

By the time that you read my letter
I will be long gone
Round the corner and
Way past your point of view
Tried to take the higher road
But old habits die hard
As if you needed evidence
Or proof

Shorter of breath
Heart is beating like a tiny drum
Pulse is getting
Quicker as I
Think of you
Waking up in the morning
To an emptyness
A darker sun will rise
Shedding light upon the truth, but:

I didn't need to know
What you're going to do
I could stay around
Like I always do
I could be your friend
If you say alright
I could be your friend
Almost everytime

Would you ever anticipate
A reasonable doubt
Drawn from the
Outline of your memory?
Past is always sweeter
When the glass is tinted
Rose-colored pigments to
Liven-up your feel

Just in case you were under the
Impression that I cared
For the way that you work out
Your anxiety
When it's much more important
To establish common goals
And make the preparation
Necessity 'cause

I didn't need to know
What you're going to do
I could stay around
Like I always do
I could be your friend
If you say alright
I could be your friend
Almost everytime

By the end of this drink
You will get another nail to drive
Into the coffin built in front of you
Better hope that the water
Does not continue to rise
And wash away
All the things you tried to steal
You we're asking me
Something I just could not hear
Over collapsing walls of society
It was just another one of those things
Caught between the edges of there and over here

I didn't need to know
What you're going to do
I could stay around
Like I always do
I could be your friend
If you say alright
I could be your friend
Almost every
Almost every
Almost every night

I didn't need to know
What you're going to do
I could stay around
Like I always do
I could be your friend
If you say alright
I could be your friend
Almost everytime
