about

Just a little song I wrote. Hope you enjoy!

lyrics

When I first met you, I was not a man
Still couldn’t tell you that’s exactly what I am
My mind’s still tripping through this thick and heavy sand
And it’s stuck on to my skin like a disease

You were everything that I would learn to hate
Stone drunk on ginger wine and passed out at the gate
You couldn’t pay me enough to go back to that place
And even though I’ve locked it all away
I can still remember every lonely day

It was you and me, together in the darkness
Never meant to be eternally inside this body
I don’t mind, if never or completely
As long as I can say you were my friend

We’d go walking and smiling through the pain
It’s worn you down so thin you could slip right through your chain
The nights come swiftly and they keep me wide awake
Shivering and helpless in this state

I know you’re tired now, but this old man can’t wait
And I know you feel like death, but baby, that’s ok
You’re still my anchor to this long and lowly plane
But I don’t have the heart to make you stay
The bells are ringing out for another lonely day

Where it’s you and me, together in the darkness
Never meant to be eternally inside this body
I don’t mind, if never or completely
As long as I can say you were my friend
Walk again into disaster
Hoping that the world will never end

Yeah, it was you and me, together in the darkness
Never meant to be eternally inside this body
I don’t mind if we don’t last forever
I can always say you were my friend
And even though you’re lost completely
I can wait to see your face again
