Never Take Friendship Personal Lyrics



(You told me to "write a song about it" so here's your song...)

There's a hatchet, got a knife 

When I awoke there was nothing real in this life

But dreams are so intoxicating 

when you're doing this alone 

Gun, rope, brick on the way 

But words have no meaning 

when it's you that says, "I really dont care" 

Innocence is gone 

Never take friendship personal 

If you can't hold yourself together 

why should I hold you now? 

In a sense gone 

Never take friendship personal

If you can't hold yourself together 

why should I hold you now? 

Once a skeptic, now the critic 

Nad you think that you finally 

found a place of your own

Amongst the cold timid souls 

Where only failure knows your name 

Look around for the closest to blame 

But look no further than the 

hands beneath your arms 

And now you're six feet down 

buried with, with your passing fame 

oh, oh, oh, you lie 

TEll me something more than what you tried to hide 

If you can't find yourself 

Then how can i expect to find you 

oh, oh, oh, you cry 

Tell me something more than waht you try 

The greatest tragedy is not your death 

but a life without reason

That your life had no purpose
