Friends, oh friends, let’s be friends
Sounds good, seems fine
But friends, oh friends
You start it in honesty.
Friends, good friends
Secrets and miseries
shared
time passes
Friends, just friends
Each day a cut
Tiny, infinitesimal
You don’t notice as your lungs fill up with blood.
Friends, oh friends, let’s be friends
It’s anguish and agony
I draw the poison out until you’re free
While I languish in a prison of my own design
Friends, only friends
I desire more of you
So I might foolishly walk that path,
Your earnest eyes still burn me
Asking questions
I don’t need the excuse.
I’d talk for days just to see your eyes on mine.
To hear your soft replies.
Only friends, just friends
