Your Own Religion

(album: Benny And The Jetts - 2011)

We stuck together
All while growing up
We made mistakes together
Let's make them while we're young
But you made your own religion
And then we drifted apart
It's been awhile
Since we last had a chat
I thought that you'd go crazy
If you didn't lighten up your act

But you didn't go crazy
In fact, I'd never seen you so happy
We'll meet from time to time
But we'll soon find that we have
Nothing to say
We'll just say "Hey
I don't like it
But I guess things happen that way"

We were friends once
That's all I'd say for sure
Cause everything else got screwed up
And it's just some angry blur
Well I guess I do things different
But I guess I can't complain
Thought about some old times
I had myself a beer
Sung to myself the first verse
Of "still crazy after all these years"

But you didn't seem crazy
In fact, I'd never seen you so happy
We'll meet from time to time
But we'll soon find that we have
Nothing to say
We'll just say "Hey
I don't like it
But I guess things happen that way@
