My Dark Sweet Friend Lyrics

My dark sweet friend 
Behind the door 
Under the roof 
Across the floor 
I’ve found the proof 
that you’re real 
Straight in your eyes 
I see my truth 

I won’t panic when you come around 
Standing right here both feet on the ground 
If you get closer to me, I swear won’t cry 
But don’t even try to drag me through the ground 

I saw your shade 
Can’t sleep no more 
Tangled in plaid 
Frozen to the core 
Like a cowardly soldier 
Running away from war 
If I had known you better 
I wouldn’t have gone so far 

I won’t panic when you come around 
Standing right here both feet on the ground 
If you get closer to me, I swear won’t cry 
But don’t even try to drag me through the ground

Oh liquid sound 
Flows in my veins and eases my mind 
Oh when it’s loud 
I can’t restrain it falling from my eyes 
Oh liquid sound 
It overcomes that dull ache in my heart 
Oh and I’ve found 
The guts to drift away from the lies 

Hey you think I’m Silly, you think I’m square I get nowhere 

Oh liquid sound 
Can seep through the walls I built around 
Oh when it’s dark 
I can imagine the colors spilled on the ground 
I can’t keep playing out of bounds 
Opening doors to that brand new world 
It makes me bliss out 

Hey you think I’m Silly, you think I’m square I get nowhere

Healing, breathing 
Follow the way 
Hold on, inhale 
Can feel the air again 

I was tattered and torn 
Now I am reborn 

No need to say it 
Can hear the call of change in my head 
A whisper of nothingness 
Attracts me like a promise of better days 

Time is curing me 
I won’t fade away 
It’s blowing a gale within 
Gonna get through the grey 
Lights are changing 
From the cradle to the grave 
Grow in wisdom 
Can feel the strength again 

I was tattered and torn 
Now I am reborn 

No need to say it 
Can hear the call of change in my head 
A whisper of nothingness 
Attracts me like a promise of better days

Make a hole in my skin 
Keep diggin’ rain or shine 
Hide the scars you draw on my belly 
And forget the devil inside 
Light a fire in my hair 
Keep blowin’ rain or shine 
Cover the ashtray you put on my head 
And forget the deadbirds around 

Oh I can see the way you go 
Oh I can feel it in my bones 

Ain’t got no hope, I come undone 
Cos’ your kingdom is rotten to the core 

Try to leave your mark on me 
Keep breedin’ rain or shine 
Put aside the offspring you can’t feed 
And ignore them screaming around 

Spread the poison in my ground 
Keep fightin’ rain or shine 
Own the sky you honoured in the past 
And go blind to the dust falling down 

Oh I can see the way you go 
Oh I can feel it in my bones 

Ain’t got no hope, I come undone 
Cos’ your kingdom is rotten to the core

Do you remember the mountains we climbed 
Our eyes in the sun of the deserts we crossed 

Do you remember the eruptions we saw 
The thrill and wonder in the the oceans we dived into 

You’re a guiding light to me 
And the link we have was meant to be
