Friend

(album: Love, War And The Ghost Of Whitey Ford - 2008)

There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told
It's incurable

There's a darkness in my heart
Slowly tearing me apart
It's unbearable

Drop of blood, a lake of tears
And baby, after all these years
You're still beautiful

And I've been loved and I've been used
Cut wide open, scarred and bruised
I'm unbreakable

Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go, girl
Right now I need a friend

Walk for miles, talk for days
And I keep trying to change my ways
It's so difficult

You kick and scream
You curse and yell
Tell me I should go to hell
It's so typical

Touch my heart
Feel my pain
Let me know I'm not insane
You're so merciful

Break your heart, I cheat, I lie
And honestly I don't know why
I'm so pitiful

Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go, girl
Right now I need a friend, yeah

There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told
It's incurable

There's darkness in my heart
That's slowly tearing me apart
It's unbearable, yeah

Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go, girl
Right now I need a friend, yeah
Right now I need a friend

There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told
It's incurable
