Friend

You were so

Fast

To believe in me

We were young back then

Tangled in the stars

But time moves

So fast

I've served coffee in five different cities now

I'm not good at faking

But I'm not good at speaking out

I am quickly blending

Into all of my fear and doubt

Friend, you were on both sides

Pulling me up and dragging me down

(And I know, it took time for me to say)

Friend, you were on both sides

Pulling me up and dragging me down

(And I know, it took time for me)

It was early days in the band

We were making tour plans

I pulled out my costume during practice in your shed

You said, "Don't wear"

"That dress"

"We have to think about who we are now"

Well, I'm not good at faking

But it all changed in me somehow

I could not stop smiling

As all the joy in me drained out

Friend, you were on both sides

Pulling me up and dragging me down

(And I know, it took time for me to say)

Friend, you were on both sides

Pulling me up and dragging me down

There is a bridge between our birthdays at midnight

Somehow I can not bring myself to call

I was a terrible friend

I pushed you right to your end

You said your limit was drawn but I wanted more

I wanted more

Friend, I've been on both sides

Pulling you up and tearing you down

(And I know, it took time for me to say)

Friend, I've been on both sides

Pulling you up and tearing you down

I've been on both sides

Am I on both sides now?
