I haven't been a good friend
For a long long time
You know I wasn't happy
Behind the smile
Anywhere you look
A reason to believe
But I think of what it took
To bring me to my proper place
And I haven't been a good friend
For a long long time
I haven't been a good friend
While you've been mine
Now am I by your side
Or standing in your way
'Cause if this is a sign
I don't know what it's sposed to mean
And I haven't been a good friend
For a long long time
I haven't been a good friend
While you've been mine
I have seen my perfect day
I have watched it fade away
You know I'm fighting to be real
I haven't been a good friend
For a long long time
You know I haven't been happy
Behind the smileI won't live to see tomorrow
There won't be another prayer
None of them will ever sorrow
Those who've sentenced me to death
I've been waiting here for ages
For the hangman to appear (the hangman to appear)
Soon the priest will read some pages
From the Bible for my fear
I see a place
An evil place
Coming my way
What can I do
Where can I run
Gonna die anyway
Things are getting clearer
This is the price I have to pay
oh no
I feel like screaming out my anger
There is so much left here to do
When it happened I was younger
And my destiny was you
I see a place
An evil place
Coming my way
What can I do
Where can I run
Gonna die anyway
Things are getting clearer
This is the price I have to pay
And what can I do about leaving you
We were only halfway through
And what can I say, there was no other way
They wouldn't let me stay
