Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Friday evening
The blood still on my hands
To think that she would leave me now
For that ungrateful man
Sole survivor
No witness to the crime
I must act fast to cover up
I think that there's still time
He'd seem hopeless and lost with this note
They'll buy into the words that I wrote
[Verse 2]
This feeling
Inside me
Finally found my love
I've finally broke free
No longer
Torn in two
I'd take my own life before losing you
[Verse 3]
Feeling good this Friday afternoon
I ran into Julian
Said we'd get together soon
He's always had my heart
He needs to know
I'll break free of the miracle
It's time for him to go
[Verse 4]
This feeling
Inside me
Finally found my love
I've finally broke free
No longer
Torn in two
He'd kill his brother if he only knew
[Verse 5]
Their love renewed
They'd rendezvous
In a pathway out of view
They thought no one knew
Then came a shot out of the night
[Verse 6]
One last time
We'll lay down today
One last time
Until we fade away
One last time
We'll lay down today
One last time
We fade away
[Verse 7]
As their bodies lie still
And the ending draws near
Spirits rise through the air
All their fears disappear
It all becomes clear
A blinding light comes into view
An old soul exchanged for a new
Familiar voice comes shining through
[Verse 8]
This feeling
Inside me
Finally found my life
I'm finally free
No longer
Torn in two
I learned about my life by living through you
[Verse 9]
This feeling
Inside me
Finally found my life
I'm finally free
No longer
Torn in two
Living my own life by learning from you
We'll meet again, my friend
Someday soon
