My Old Friend Lyrics

I watched the sunset burn another day

I ran to the edge but still you ran away

It's not a race, I never won

But you were on the other side when I was done

And I'm not clean, I know

I dream about you still

I dig a hole and hope I'll find the other side of this hell

I watch you break, you fall away

I'll find a new place to call home

Far away with my old friend

I held the hope, I held on to your hand

The teenage dream that cried and broke down in my arms

A smokey vision of a night I'm left alone

But there's no other side, no hope to fill this hole

And I'm not clean, I know

I dream about you still

I dig a hole and hope I'll find the other side of this hell

I watch you break, you fall away

I'll find a new place to call home

Far away with my old friend

I followed all dead ends until my lungs ran out of air

Then take a breath, ignore the death to come

And I'm not clean, I know

I dream about you still

I dig a hole and hope I'll find the other side of this hell

I watch you break, you fall away

I'll find a new place to call home, far away

Far away with my old friend
