Hey old friend
I would love to see you again
You used to be so care free
But now you just carry
The weight of the world eating off your dinner plate
Pour the passion out
Fill back up with hate
Throw the dreams out and
Find some second hand fate
Then get fired from your job and pack up your crate

You're a fake
Because this ain't you
You of all people letting fear dominate your life? That cant be true
No one made the choice but you
You're trapped in freedom
How the hell you going to lead 'em?
You promised !

You swore to sing their songs,
you swore to carry on,
you swore that when they were weak,
you'd be strong
What if you were wrong?
What if you don't belong?
What if that desire is gone?

Is it too late?
Oh I know, maybe you should contemplate
That'll get you
somewhere,
somehow,
someway
Ha! There went another day
You sat in the class and gave your word you had things to say
But now the cats got your tongue, your sword has been swung
The only thing left for you is the enternal beating of drums

Hope it was worth it
I did mean it
I would've loved to see you again
