My friend 1987
You spend your life searching
For the ultimate independence
You end up feeling so alone
It doesn’t seem to make any sense
You try to make your decisions
Based on what’s right and wrong
And then when it explodes on you
Everyone says I told you all along
There are no rules on how to live
No way to know the right turns to take
So when it weights heavy on your mind
Remember even god made mistakes
Finally you decide you wish to be alone
Spend evenings swallowing your fear
And no one is ever there now
To wipe away that one lonely tear
Closing your feelings you feel you’ll be safe
Convincing everyone you really don’t care
Your friends have cute little families
But you have yourself the point is there
Close your eyes
Take a minute to think
You know you gotta swim
Cos you can’t sink
You got too much to prove
To give it up today
Just stop and regroup
You’ll think of another way
You spend your life searching
For the ultimate independence
You end up feeling so alone
It doesn’t seem to make any sense
You try to make your decisions
Based on what’s right and wrong
And then when it explodes on you
Everyone says I told you all along
There are no rules on how to live
No way to know the right turns to take
So when it weights heavy on your mind
Remember even god made mistakes
Finally you decide you wish to be alone
Spend evenings swallowing your fear
And no one is ever there now
To wipe away that one lonely tear
Closing your feelings you feel you’ll be safe
Convincing everyone you really don’t care
Your friends have cute little families
But you have yourself the point is there
Close your eyes
Take a minute to think
You know you gotta swim
Cos you can’t sink
You got too much to prove
To give it up today
Just stop and regroup
You’ll think of another way
