My Old Friend Lyrics

I watched the sunset burn another day
I ran to the edge but still you ran away
It was 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’ll 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
The 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’ll 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 til 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’ll watch you break, you fall away
I’ll find a new place to call home
Far away
Far away with my old friend
