lyrics

I Once Had A Friend -

I once had a friend
Who saw the world end
You'd see it too
If you looked in his eyes

A pair so blue
A pain so true
Two drops of truth
In an ocean of lies

He saw through the con
The game and it's pawns
We’ve nowhere to run
Now that you are gone

So long my friend
we won't meet again
I just wish I was there for goodbyes
Goodbye my friend
Let go of your pain
Leave it with me as you rest your eyes

He fought and he taught
Gave all that he’s got
To save a world so wrong and so blind

He charged and preached
To person he reached
He was no saint but he was one of a kind

He saw through the con
The game and it's pawns
We’ve nowhere to run
Now that you are gone

The purest heart
Is doomed from the start
Born into a world of darkness
Every day you fight just to survive
You’re not alone
But you’re on your own
So I get it you have had enough
You’ve made your choice
But I never got to say

My friend
I see what you mean
I just wish it didn't take me so long
So long my friend
We won’t meet again
And you will never hear this song
