Where did they go, where are the finer things in life?
The things we never knew and never cared to have
We had each other, everything we'd need
There was never a time you'd turn your back on me

And for so long there wasn't a day you wouldn't call
Stop by or stop in to go cause trouble
Three in the morning while the neighborhood sleeps
We saw the rest of our lives

We never had or needed, it's not a fair trade
I know you're trying
And I hear the view is twice as nice when you're dying
And now you face a seemingly eternal night

Don't sleep, I won't
I won't lose this fight, more than a friend you're a part of me
Defining all that I've known and sharing all that I've seen
Don't turn your eyes away from me

I fear now, I'm a friend who is failing
Lied to and cheated we've been ***king robbed
We've lost touch with ourselves

What we had is gone and it's not a fair trade
I know you're trying
And I hear the view is twice as nice when you're dying
But I care too much to see you waste away

This time I know you're going to be okay
You're okay and I'm all right
Trials come but together we'll be all right
I know you'll be all right

Take my time, take everything of mine
Can't replace this space with memories and reminders
With your face to the ground, you've forced me to my knees
I can't stay here, I won't watch you leave

So long, farewell my friend
I'll see you again but only time will tell
If I'll wear a smile or meet a better man
Maybe I never will
