So Called Friend

Never again A so-called friend Will leave you sick and dry This friend has a name Knows the gutter and shame So-called friend of you and I Oh, great soul The long term goals Are to leave this friend behind He knows what I lack Is a place under the sack And every other tie that binds This last night on the town Might be your last above ground And you think to yourself There must be a better way Than the same routine For more than once you pay More than once you pay Butt full of lead Stuck in your web Held captive by the stream Of thoughts in your head They made a nice bed And you still had time to dream This last night on the town Might be your last above ground And you smile at things And wave goodbye More excuses to never even try As you wave goodbye Forget what I said Your friend's not dead He's only gone for a while Come back through that crack Between what's white and what's black And give you one last smile This last night on the town Might be your last above ground And you think to yourself There must be a better way Than the same routine For more than once you pay More than once you pay
